Elmley, First Light to Last

Robert Canis is one of that lucky breed who know from an early age the career they want to pursue. At seven or eight, encouraged by his parents, he began to explore the countryside around his home, and by the time he was 12, he had set his heart on becoming a wildlife photographer. It is no surprise to discover that he has been the recipient of numerous photographic awards, including several from the British Wildlife Photography Awards. 'I am passionate about the North Kent marshes,' says the renowned local photographer, who has recently published Elmley – First Light to Last: An English Wilderness. Robert will explain his fascination for the marshes and his mission to record this landscape.
