Richard Barrett

Richard Barrett has been a structural engineer working in the steel industry. He has always been a keen photographer but on early retirement he had time to devote himself fully to his passion of wildlife photography. Many of his travels in search of exotic mammals have been in the company of the world’s foremost wildlife photographers – talents such as Mark Carwardine, Danny Green and Marsel van Oosten – and from them he has learnt many of the skills of the field which he passes on in his book, Wild World.
