In The Blog: Photography on the Jurassic Coast of Dorset, England

Durdle Door, The Jurassic Coast, Dorset, England

Last year I visited the Jurassic Coast of Dorset, England, and ever since I've been meaning to write a short overview of my experience and thoughts; hoping it may be of interest to other photographers considering a trip.

Welcome to Adrian Testa Photography

I'm a photographer from the south of England, focusing on wildlife, landscape and travel photography. My photographic journey began in 2006, when I decided to travel around South America after graduating from university. It was a trip which presented me with an incredible collection of marvels, from magnificent landscapes to dazzling displays of wildlife. At the time I wasn’t a photographer, nor did I own any camera equipment other than my Sony Handycam. But I made the most of what I had, in an attempt to capture some of the breath-taking sights before me; I knew I’d be back someday.

Since then my relationship with photography has flourished. Focussing primarily on wildlife, landscape and travel photography, I’ve been lucky enough to visit many incredible countries. I've also worked as a photographer with the Smithsonian's U.S. National Museum of Natural History, where my photos have appeared in a number of exhibits and achieved publications including Oceanography Magazine, and the Washington Post.

In the U.K. while pursuing my love for natural history video production, I’ve worked with Icon Films (Bristol) and Red Earth Studios (London), and contributed towards productions such as River Monsters (for Discovery Channel & ITV), Vet Adventures (for Sky), World's Deadliest Towns (for National Geographic) and The One Show (for BBC).

I hope you enjoy my portfolio, and I hope it helps me spread the knowledge of the awesome wonders that our planet has to offer. Be sure to check back again soon as I’ll be adding new shots regularly.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. ~Mark Twain
