A new passion sparked by a simple gift
Eighteen months ago, a gift changed everything. Based in Hertfordshire, England, I received a Canon 100D from my sister-in-law, which ignited a passion for photography that shows no signs of fading. Despite having ADHD and autism, which often lead me to cycle through hobbies quickly, photography has captured my attention like nothing else.
I started with macro photography but soon explored landscapes, wildlife, and street photography. Each had its appeal, but my heart was always with macro. I’ve always loved capturing nature and wildlife, but life’s circumstances have recently shifted my focus.
