Weekly series promoting wildlife and environmental issues using photographs, videos and slide shows in the hope that some people may benefit from my experience as a professional photographer for more than 30 years. During this time I have published two wildlife photo books, most recently From Sunrise To Sunshine, which contains more than 150 of my Maasai Mara safari photographs, 40 of which have won awards, including two from Natures Best, sponsored by the Smithsonian. I was Irish Professional Wildlife Photographer of the Year in 2017.
