A keen birdwatcher from an early age, his parents bought him his first camera in his teens. Tipling was soon recording the birds in his local area. A largely self-taught wildlife photographer, Tipling came under the watchful eye of Roy Coles, the then warden of nearby Bough Beech Reservoir, a nature reserve in Kent. Tipling learned his craft largely by 'trial and error' and by training his eye, studying the work of various artist's who gave him his distinctive 'artistic' sense of composition. Between 1983 and 1994 he travelled throughout Britain following birdwatchers to photograph the rarities they were travelling to see. This gave him a good grounding in fieldcraft and ornithology. A taste for the rare and unseen, with an artist's sense of composition, was the result.〔(Favourite Images selected by the RSPB )〕 Tipling's work was soon widely published in magazines such as ''British Birds'', ''Birds Illustrated'',〔(Birds Illustrated ) VOLUME 2, ISSUE 1 Autumn 2004.〕 ''Birdwatch'', ''Dutch Birding'' and ''Birding World'';〔(Birdingworld: Photographs by David Tipling on Cley Marshes )〕 as well as being used in national newspapers.〔''The Independent'' Monday, 14 January 2008, ''Loss of Antarctic ice has soared by 75 per cent in just 10 years'' By Steve Connor, Science Editor.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Tipling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
