I can announce to readers of my blog (please imagine drum
roll and cheers in the background) that Samuel Hood, who you may note occasionally features in my blog, has
become Junior Scottish Nature Photographer of the Year.
Samuel on a high.
Over recent years I have watched this genuine guy develop
into not only an excellent photographer, a passionate and knowledgeable
naturalist and also of course a very special friend of mine. Samuel is a great role model for any aspiring
young (and not so young) photographers.
I’m of the opinion that his fine results come from a deep passion and
knowledge of his subject, good field-craft skills and loads of patience. These are characteristics of the better
wildlife/nature photographers. I reckon
we can count on hearing lots more of Samuel Hood in the years to come.
