Biography
Hi, I am Baz (Barry Haynes),
A retired Oceanographer from the UK. I now work as a Professional Photographer ( aLSO NOW RETIRED) based in Dorset Englad.
I studied Biology, Ecology, Geology and Oceanography at the Open University University and did a Post Graduate Degree in Environmental Management at Surrey University.
I worked for the UK Government as a Marine Advisor on their "Common Fisheries Policy Project".
I was lucky enough to travel extensivley around Europe and the United States where my love for photography was rekindled with the advent of Digital Equipment, I still hang on to my Olympus OM2 and stable of lenses just in case!I am based in the UK but work extensively in the USA.
I'm an avid traveller I love to be near the ocean or in the mountains or ideally both at the same time. BigSur California is one of My Favourite Travel DestinationsI love to take photographs, Cycle, Walk, create computer graphics, build computers, study Ken-jitsu, Study generally, Walk, Hike, Climb, Scuba dive, and generally enjoy life.
Photography has been my passion for more than 30 years. I have always used Olympus cameras as a travel photographer, they made just about the lightest and most compact DSLR's you could find.
I use an OMD EM1 MK2 as my main cameras and an Olympus E-5 AS BACK UP. When I travel I use the EM1 Mk2 as it is much lighter, my lenses are: Olympus Digital, 12-50mm, 14-42mm: 3.5-5.611 R, 12-60mm, 40-150mm and 75-300mm macro, 70 - 300 4/3. I find that these cover my needs in all situations.
My Photography covers most areas with a slant towards Landscape, Travel and Natural History Work.
