Heather Angel is perhaps best known as a highly versatile nature photographer whose pictures have a strong artistic appeal as well as scientific authenticity. After reading for a zoology degree, she took up photography whilst undertaking research in marine biology. When her first book, Nature Photography: Its Art and Techniques, was published in 1972, Heather’s photographic career took over. She has produced 50 titles on photographic techniques, on natural history and gardening topics including Kew – A World of Plants, How to Photograph Flowers and Natural Visions. Since 1994 she has been a special Professor within the School of Biology at Nottingham University.
