ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This portrait was part of a series that were taken at Edinburgh Zoo using a Canon 600d and standard 18-55mm lens. The portrait style gave each animal a personality, making them more relate-able to us. I approached these portraits in an attempt to create an closeness between the viewer and the animal. I wanted to photograph in such a way that we should look at these creatures not as mere animals but as our fellow companions.

AUTHOR
I am a creative and passionate photographer with a diverse range of skills but with a particular interest in Fine Art and Contemporary Photography. I excel at approaching projects in a creative manner. I enjoy producing work that adopts an alternative style of capture or possess a unique aesthetical quality. I like to push the boundaries of photography and combine my images with alternative presentation methods such as mixed media. It is these aspects of my work that has enabled me to gain recognition over the last year through both awards and featured articles.
