This video took so much work with a subject that over the years has never caused me a problem. This time for what ever reason I just could not get the badgers to come out of the sett before dark, at least not where I expected them too. I did get there in the end…sort of!

How I Remove Noise from High ISO Images
Ten years ago it was a real struggle to produce images with anything over about ISO 1600. Today I am more than happy to push my Sony all the way up to 12800+ ISO if the situation requires it. This is the software that helps me produce quality images from high ISo Raw files.
Getting started with Macro Photography
This week I head out with my Sony A7r3 and macro lens. As a wildlife photographer I am often busy photographing the larger birds and animals in the environment. However as we move towards summer I also focus on the smaller creatures and plants that surround us and often go un-noticed. A macro lens is a great way to discover the smaller world that surrounds us and enables the skilled photographer to create wonderful images, often very close to home. In this video I give you an introduction to the macro world and tips to help you get the most from your macro lens. This video does not cover any kit other than a camera lens and possibly a tripod. Future videos will cover more complex techniques such as the use of flash and focus stacking but this video will provide the new macro photographer with the information to create some wonderful images.
