| Artist and wildlife photographer, Peter Preece, provided us with a feast for the eyes with his digital slideshow of birds, insects, mammals, reptiles and amphibians. After 40 years of working in a design studio, he retired and started travelling with his wife and fellow photographer, Margaret, around the UK and Europe in search of wildlife to photograph. And with access to 5,000 acres of reforested farmland with lakes and scrapes, he can set up feeding stations and build hides (when not using his camouflage Skoda!) in order to attract and photograph a wide variety of species. With plenty of tips and a freezer full of bait, Peter showed us how his art is 95% fieldwork and 5% award-winning photography. We wish him luck in winning a cash prize from Mr Attenborough! LS |
