Alongside my practical activities I have acquired a vast collection of photographs of flora and fauna and included a small sample of the total in this website.

Centre for Fortean Zoology Expeditions
Sumatra, Indonesia
In 2011 I went to the rain forests of west Sumatra on one of Adam Davies' expeditions to search for the Orang Pendek.
Here are descriptions of the amazing geography, bio-diversity of life within the jungle; including plants and fungi, invertebrates and other Sumatran wildlife.
Meghalaya, India
In 2010 I went to the state of Meghalaya in North-East India to search for another cryptid (the Mande Burong).
Here you can see photographs and video of this fascinating part of the world.
