I grew up in the south of England, close to the South Downs National Park where creatures such as roe deer and brown hares were my main focus. It wasfor photographing roe deer is between the months of May and September, in the run-up to their annual rut, and for a short while after. It can take weeks before you get the shots you want and you normally only learn by making mistakes. Please remember that the animal’s welfare is paramount: as wildlife photographers, we should always strive to document our subject’s behaviour rather than disrupt it.
