I'm Sam Rowley, a 15 year old wildlife photographer and this is my photography gallery.
I've been interested in photography since I went on safari with my family when I was 11, and I always use my Dad's camera (Nikon D300).
My favourite type of photography, as you can probably tell, is wildlife. I adopt a wide range of styles; from satisfying portraits to controversial abstracts.
The pictures that you are seeing are mainly from Kew Gardens/Pond, Richmond Park and the London Wetland Centre (as I live in London).
Some of my pictures have been awarded in wildlife photography competitions such as: The Veolia Environnement Wildlife Photographer of the Year, International Wildbird Photographer of the Year, The Garden Photographer of the Year, The RSPCA Young Photographer Awards and The WWT Nikon Photography Competition.
Some of my photographs can be seen on Steve Bloom's Stock Photography website:

Here is a list of my awards:
- RSPCA Young Photographer Awards 2009 - Pet Personalities category - Winner.
