After what seems like a long absence from Canada we are finally back and for the next two weeks our focus turns to bears in the state of Alberta and specifically Jasper National Park. June is a great month for spotting bears as its shortly after the time of year that both black and brown bears (aka Grizzly bear) emerge...
We left west wales after a couple of nights and on our return we called into the 'Red Kite Feeding Centre' and thought we would share our experience here with other photographers and nature lovers interested in visiting this centre. Nestled in pretty welsh countryside the centre is located in Llanddeusant. A tiny community in the Black Mountain region of...
Following weeks of being in a sling following a shoulder op and practically confined to the house for what felt like 'eons' meant Andy and I were desperate for a change of scenery. We decided a quick trip away in the camper over Easter would be just the trick and hopefully a distraction away from the constant pain my shoulder was...
We have decided its time to have a complete website redesign and as a result our blog here will soon be moving to www.imagesofwildlife.co.uk At the moment the old website is still live and our last post here will soon announce when it's all live. Keep checking back as we expect to be live in the next 4 weeks. We hope everyone here...
It was December 30th and the Amarula was going down quite nicely as the three of us were watching TV. Every evening we would regularly pay a visit outside for a 'cloud check' whilst we all avidly checked the NASA website for the current aurora activity. This particular evening was no different. It was around 11pm and Andy had just...
We arrived at our apartment in Laugarvatn after dark, driving en route through Thingvellir National Park and were pleasantly surprised at how nice and large it was, with a great location overlooking a large frozen lake. Similar to Grundarfjordur the village of Laugarvatn is small with less than 1000 inhabitants. Nestled at the base of a small mountain and close...
On our last evening at Hotel Framnes we were again hindered by thick cloud and sadly no aurora activity, indeed disappointing but as there is little you can do to affect either we all remained bouyant and in good spirits. The next morning we were due to leave Grundarfjordur early to make our way to the small village of Laugarvatn...
Our latest travel blog brings us back to Iceland. In contrast to our visit in September 2012 this time we have chosen to come back in the winter. Iceland in the winter certainly provides a different kind of experience but our main aim this time is to capture the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) and hopefully a chance to see Orca...

In the last few days the weather has changed a little, lovely sunrises but the afternoons marked with cloud and a slightly increased rainfall as well as a rise in temperature. Fortunately so far the rivers remain low and allowing us to still cross over. A few days back we were treated to quite some action. Starting first with an...
