For the first few years we lived in a tiny rented cottage at the bottom of a friend's garden. We often joked that there was plenty of film in the fridge, but not too much food!

I hope to goodness I would not still be working in the corporate world - the money is OK but it is no life at all.

All I really wanted to do was wildlife photography.

A large wildlife book, start to finish, could take one to two years, but then I would expect to get several good (nature) magazine features off the back of this, plus of course a lot of stock.

My first serious project was photographing badgers - very, very difficult as they are shy and nocturnal.
