About Me

I started my photography journey in October 2023 after buying a camera for a trip to Iceland. Once back from the trip I would wander around Central Park taking photos of whatever I could find. The ever-present and expressive house sparrows soon caught my attention, and I purchased my first birding lens the next day. From then on I quickly fell in love with “collecting” birds through my camera, it’s like playing Pokémon in real life.
