Photographing Wild Birds by Chris Gomersall

The practicalities of working in the field are the fundamental skills for any bird photographer. Here the author's many years of professional experience allow him to explain clearly his methods for stalking, using hides, and photographing rare birds, even in tough conditions, as well as advanced techniques such as using decoys or tapes. Each section contains a feature interview with leading international bird photographers showcasing their work and the techniques or subjects with which they are associated. An extended section of case studies shows how field techniques are put into practice to capture stunning images of many birds. Introductory chapters on equipment and creative camera techniques, and concluding chapters on post-production, including digital storage, complete this comprehensive guide.
Chris Gomersall was a staff photographer at the RSPB for 14 years, and for the last 9 years of that time was also their photographic manager. He is now a freelance photographer, represented internationally by Bruce Coleman, RSPB Images, the BBC Natural History Unit Picture Library and Wildlife GmbH in Germany. His work is published regularly in magazines and calendars and his photographs have been highly commended at the Abbeville Festival de L'Oiseau in France. Chris lives in Potton, Bedfordshire.
