Some new aerial work from Shark Bay in Western Australia. A place that absolutely blew me away.

Sorry for my absence over here. It’s been a very busy last few months of leading workshops and personal trips. This adventure to Australia being one of those. Hope you like this one shot from a plane.

That’s extremely dark and now there is unnatural fringing all around the horses manes

Two versions of the same image just taken last week while in Camargue, France. These two stallions had been separated for a few days and were play fighting to say hello. I do love the color version but this subject matter just screams for black and white. Which do you all prefer?

My team at Destination Earth Photo Tours has just put together an awesome opportunity at Brooks Falls Alaska to photograph brown bears during the summer salmon run at the end of July. It’s a very small group workshop and the trip of a lifetime to be able to spend that many nights there. DM for info.

Thank you Jakob. It was the very last photo that I captured on the trip. And ran out of the car to do so just trying to get it all lined up. I didn’t even realize the atmosphere I caught till I saw it on the computer

It’s a three shot pano. Same exposure. I ran to get the horses lined up and then shot a quick handheld pano to get all the peaks and then I think squished it a little in post for this crop

You can say that again. The atmosphere and light is unlike anywhere I’ve ever been

Yeah I didn’t even realize that when I shot it. I was in a sprint to just get the horses lined up in front of the peaks. I’m quite pleased how it turned out

A moment I don’t think I’ll soon forget. These three Bengal Tiger siblings walking side by side right towards my jeep in Ranthambhore

I believe that’s the start of the rainy season. Ranthambore is closed July - Oct because of the rains

I went to Ranthambore and Jawai. Be warned it’s going to be hot as hell in JuneπŸ₯΅

Four images from this year’s trip to India. I’m currently flying back home with two 10 hour flights down and one more short one to go. My workshop this year was a tremendous success with so many incredible sightings. Dates for next year are now open. Message me for details if you’re interested!

I’ve gone from photographing African wildlife last month to Indian wildlife this month. Specifically tigers with my workshop clients in Ranthambhore. To say that these Bengal tigers are majestic creatures is an understatement. Here’s an image from yesterday morning!
