You will notice that there is no introduction to this section yet.
It is our aim fill this gap with an introduction from a local photographer [or someone who is a frequent visiting photographer] for every one of the geographical pages on fatphotographer.net.
As a photographer myself I prefer to read something written by someone who knows the area well and can offer advice on the area from an insider's point of view. They usually know the best locations, not just the ones that first time or overseas visitors usually visit or that are well known outside of the area, and can often offer hidden gems.
Each introduction carries the e-mail and website address of the contributor so that photographers can get in touch with them if, for example, they are planning a trip [unless the contributor is unable to do this]. This can also bring you extra traffic to your business etc from those seeking the services of a photographer.
Please get in touch if you feel you can contribute an introduction to this page - you don't have to be an expert; I'm not!
Our sister sites, Fatbirder.com or Fatfisherman.com are regularly used by hundreds of thousands of birdwatchers/anglers when planning overseas trips or activities closer to home. Fatbirder.com gets over four million hits a month and has a high Google rating because it is an information resource that is both comprehensive and trusted, fatfisherman.com is fast approaching the same.
Help us make Fatphotographer.net the first point of reference for anything photographic anywhere in the world!

Photographer - Leo Palmer
http://www.leopalmerphotography.co.uk/
Looking back I think I was always interested in photography without doing very much about it. Before WW11 my Grandfather used to process his own prints at home in a large dark cupboard in one of the bedrooms. However by the 1950’s it was full of junk and photography did not seem to be on the agenda. However my interest in this dark cupboard and photography had been ignited.

Wildlife Photographer - John Bridges
http://www.northeastwildlife.co.uk
I was advised, because of health issues regarding a blocked artery in my left leg, to walk everyday or risk losing the leg which, to be honest, I quite like attached to the rest of my body. Having to walk on a daily basis meant I needed motivation, so at the age of 55 I decided to take up photography again after many, many years away from the hobby. The images in these galleries are mostly as a result of my daily walks. I enjoy my photography immensely and allowing my pictures to be used for free adds to the pleasure of taking them...
