On leaving school, he obtained a degree in Zoology from Manchester University, but it was only later that his passion for the natural world was re-kindled, largely by linking it to his other love—photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRichard and his wife Lisa spent eight years living in the southern part of Greece in an area blessed with some wonderful mountain scenery and deep gorges. This, in combination with the changes that occurred through the seasons and the wonderful light quality, provided excellent opportunities for him to hone his landscape photography skills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to exhibiting prints and publishing his work, Richard regularly leads photographic safaris and landscape photography workshop holidays abroad, as well as conducting workshops and tutorials for individuals and small groups at his South Devon home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853813764332,"sku":"9781781450864","price":49.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/7209263482822.jpg?v=1759219609"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/r-garvey-williams.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
