Austin Thomas Photography
Austin Thomas is an International Award Winning wildlife and nature photographer, based in the United Kingdom.
Since an early age, I have been interested in nature, wildlife and the great outdoors, often spending many a happy hour walking in the fresh air with a pair of binoculars.
All of that changed in 2007, when I decided to purchase a camera. I now seem to get up even earlier, spend half of my life in a hide, view wildlife through a camera lens and spend the other half in front of the computer. In 2008 I joined a camera club, Wigan 10 Foto Club, which has enabled me to diversify photographically and learn new skills. Entering photographic competitions nationally and internationally has broadened my exposure to the world of photography.
I use Canon equipment, having started life with a Canon 300D in 2007, later migrating to a Canon 30D, Canon 1D Mark III and Canon 1D Mark IV. Today I typically carry two camera bodies with me. A Canon 1DX MK2 and a Canon 7D MK2.
I have had many images published both nationally and internationally and have contributed to the BBC Wildlife Magazine.
In 2010 I did some work for the BBC, which resulted in a short feature that was broadcast on the local BBC News.
