About Andrew Trevor-Jones

I have been participating in photography in one form or other since I was very young. It has been a passion that has not left me.

Most of my photographs are of natural subjects both above and below the water, with macro photography being my favourite.

I use Nikon gear and Ikelite housings.

    It’s got very powerful hind legs. Never noticed that about them before.

  • I don’t know what benefit they might gain from the large hind legs.
