James Boardman Woodend

I have been a keen photographer for a rather embarrassing number of years. I enjoy most types of photography, but most of all, I enjoy images of nature and wildlife.

In 2014 I was fortunate enough to win the title of Astronomy Photographer of the Year. I have also had a Special Mention Award in Interenational Travel Photographer of the Year & a winning image in International Garden Photographer of the Year.

My work has been published in many magazines, newspapers & on TV – I have also taken part in exhibitions at the Royal Greenwich Observatory and also at the Royal Geographical Society.

I have also been fortunate to have 2 of my images appear on the NASA run Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD).
