Hi
I just came across TAG on-line and the section you edit on photography. Very impressed by many of the photos - particularly the dragonflies. I don't know if this will be of any interest but here goes. My wife and I moved to Haute Serre near Penne about a year ago, and I have just started to put together a web-site devoted to the natural history of the area. It is largely photographic in nature, reflecting my own interests in photography, particularly macro photography, butterflies and other animals. For now it is a kind of butterfly collection that will grow as I process the photographs I have taken this year. I also hope to add blog content that will highlight the plight of wildlife in the South of England and encourage people here in the Tarn to realise just how lucky they are with the species diversity that exists locally. I would be interested to hear from anyone who lives nearby who shares similar interests. I also make weird devices for improving (?) macro photos - that is the subject of another blog - it fell silent while I set up house here but is taking off again.
The natural history/photography web site is here: www.petermobbs.com and the weird technical one is here: www.petermobbs.wordpress.com/. If you can, take a look!
PS. I used to run the Pre clinical Medical School at UCL......but am glad to have retired!
All the best,

Val says Peter Hughes wild life photographer and ex vet is now back in the UK. Here's hoping we have another Peter who will take up the challenge. His photos are superb.
