When you’re as tall as a giraffe, there just isn’t an easy way to get a drink. It’s quite a sight to see though, and we timed passing by this giraffe just perfectly. I love the detail visible in the throat area, you just don’t see that when they are the right way up. Okavango Delta, April 2015

The heavily pregnant alpha female of a wild dog pack pauses while the rest of the pack played and lounged just out of the photo. The pack denned at Ngala and I believe she had a litter of 18 puppies. For the future of wild dogs, successes like those are definitely needed. May, 2015

Looking back through my photos, I think some of the most stunning landscape photos I have were taken in Namibia.  The amazing contrasts of such clear blue skies and the red sand, to me it was just breathtaking.

I was inspired to work on a few photos of impalas; I hope you enjoy the results.
