Christopher Cosgrove

Retired Teacher born in Belfast Northern Ireland and now living in Portugal. Taught at St Dominic's International School Portugal in Lisbon. Christopher has had a lifelong interest in Photography, Wildlife and Art and now in retirement, he can devote more time to these three pursuits. His main passion is photography which is a somewhat overcrowded activity with so many people able to take digital photos on cameras, phones and tablets Chris believes there is not much room for art photographers in these days of selfies and stock photography. He has, therefore, turned his talents to taking photographs and turning them into visual art pieces. This combines his knowledge of photography, technology and the natural world. I hope my efforts can be appreciated by as many people as possible.
