East Yorkshire Wildlife Blog

Who is 'East Yorksire Wildlife'?

My name is Martin Standley and I have been interested in digital photography for since 2002. I started out with a Nikon Coolpix 3200 and my first wildlife photograph was of a wall brown butterfly. I later moved on to digi-scoping, I upgraded to a Nikon Coolpix 8400 and combined this with a Kowa telescope. Finally I took the plunge a few years ago and entered the world of DSLRs, I bought myself a Nikon D300s and an AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4G. I have since used a D810 and D500 as well as 300mm f2.8 and 105mm macro lenses.

I have expanded my horizons to all aspects of wildlife. My main focus of attention is the wildlife of East Yorkshire in the UK and on the odd occasion I have been tempted further afield.
