Introduction – WILD DOG PHOTO

This is a journey, a pursuit in experiencing, visiting and savouring the wildest , unspoilt and most exquisitely beautiful places on this blue planet of ours.It is a journey that takes one to beneath the blue oceans, the vast savannas, towering forests,to the oldest and driest of deserts to the coldest and most inhospitable snowcapped mountains. This journey leads one to a direct intersection with the inhabitants of all these wonderous places, mammals,birds, reptile, insects and all other variants of life that occupy these niches.There is immense privilege in spending time with all these wonderous creatures, it creates bold new insights and new perspectives in sharing in their lives. Photography adds a wonderful dimension. It complicates this journey immensely , chasing the good light , the pursuit of wonderful scenes and animal sightings.

There is a also the technical and technological element that is inherent to photography but then also the artistic side that is virtually limitless – the only limit to this art is one’s own vision.

Digital photography has revolutionized our art form. It has created oppurtunities that were never even dreamt of. I truly love digital photography and the possibilities that it renders us. However I do experience a longing sometimes to old school photography, film camera, shooting strictly manual and the smell of dark room chemicals in red light. Join me in my pursuit of the wild places of beauty and the journey to photograph the inhabitants of these special places.For these places and animals I harbour enormous respect and great passion.
