UK based photographer shooting with Nikon and most recently micro four thirds with OM systems making a come-back. You will find older images taken with just about every sensor size in my work, due to an almost pathological need to purchase photographic equipment.
I have loved using Pentax 645z medium format, Pentax K1 full frame, Pentax K3iii and various micro 4/3s cameras in the past and even a brief flirt with a Sony A7iii. Nikon's amazing lens selection for wildlife and the capability of the bodies are my go to if I don't have far to walk. The OM-1 ii and the amazing 150-400mm lens is my go to for longer treks and most travel.
Lover of nature, wildlife and our planet.
Please contact me for use of my photography.

Why doncoombez? It is a long story, but it involves Italian restaurants, confused overseas call centre operatives, and endlessly amused colleagues.
My real name is Rich, and I live in a lovely little village in Hampshire, in the UK. I have my own little slice of heaven, a private woodland with a bird hide and a badger set.
My passion is to be outside and photographing nature, particularly in heathland. I will happily sit for hours waiting for the right moment and not be too concerned if nothing happens, I find it meditative and incredibly calming.
I also have an unhealthy camera bag obsession...
Happy to chat with fellow nature lovers and photography nerds!
