I’m Dave Wild
I love animals and I love photography. The photo on the right hand side is me with my pet dog, Molly, on the day she moved in.
I remember my first family dog when I was 5 years old and since then, most members of my family have had pet dogs and they have had such a positive effect on those around them.
Photography has been a hobby of mine for a long time, and combining that with a love of animals has given me a lot of enjoyment.
I’ve lived in Nottinghamshire in the UK my whole life and I love to get out walking and cycling in the forests and parks. It was on these trips that I started taking photographs of the various animals that I’d encounter.
It’s always been important to me that the animals feel comfortable. I don’t want to intrude or worry them - most of the time the animals will approach me, and I tend to be quiet and calm so that they stay relaxed and happy.
