Paul Colley CB OBE FRPS
Paul is a Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society and former Chairman of the British Society of Underwater Photographers. He’s been lucky enough to have his work recognised in The British Wildlife Photography Awards (overall winner), Underwater Photographer of the Year and Nature Photographer of the Year. Although proficient in different kinds of specialist photography including infra red bat photography and deep space astrophotography, his principal goal is to create images to support the conservation of wildlife and habitats. Paul’s latest project is a self-build remote-control observatory from where he will create images of the night sky during his second fellowship (in astrophotography) with the Royal Photographic Society.
