Let’s discuss the best places where a wildlife photographer can get the maximum inspiration. Well, if you want to discover some of the best secrets of Brazil then head out to Pantanal where you can discover the best wildlife. Placed at the heart of South America, Pantanal is the world’s largest wetland which covers an area of 210,000 sq km. Well to add more live to your picture you have the great Amazon rain forest with a variety of jaguars and alligators. All you should do is to just find that perfect spot for your perfect shot. What’s more, add some more essence as you breathe in the tropical air that carries a raw scent of nature. Also, pause the flight of some birds like flocks of egrets, storks, and spoonbills in your lenses.

Madagascar: Madagascar’s national parks are famed for their incredible biodiversity. There are over 33 species of lemur on the island, all of them sadly endangered, and while seeking them out you may also find colourful butterflies and a host of reptiles including toothy crocodiles. You’ll practice twilight and nocturnal shooting, and there will also be the opportunity to take portraits and streetscapes in cities such as Antsirabe.

I believe transparency is super important with my customers, and so I will soon be setting up a new page on my website illustrating the causes that we will be supporting including the total amount of donations that have been made through product purchases by customers! Between now and the 10th of January, all profits from sales made on my website will be donated to the emergency fund at WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.) which is being used to help rescue sick, injured, or orphaned wildlife affected by the ongoing bushfires.
