Photography
Being an avid birder its a requirement that I also include photography as a hobby. Starting with a Nikon D3200 and a stock lens and broken autofocus I spent many years trying to take high quality pictures. This obviously was a challenge, but after 10 years of struggle I finally upgraded to my Nikon z7II with lenses ranging from ultrawide angle to telephoto zoom. I have had the best time taking photos of the amazing locations and wildlife I have seen over the years. Below you can find some of my favorite images and you can also find me on Instagram (matt_watson292).
All the images I include below are free to use for non-commercial purposes, all I ask is that you include a photo credit.
