Nothing beats the magical moment when an arctic fox stares ate you, accepts you and continues to play with its siblings in the winter cold.

You can't escape this African Penguin's gaze

Is it just me or does this picture really look like a scene from Lion King, except its muskox?

This Cape sugarbird stood still for exactly 0.4 seconds. This resulted in a perhaps not technically good photo, but one that displays the colours, the

A lonely cabin in the Norwegian winter.

This very spontaneous photoshoot initiated by the beautiful colours on her headpiece introduced us to each other and started a friendship

As we all know, capturing the energy of extreme weather can be difficult. However, although my photo is covered by filter from the blizzard, I think i

Staying out in the blizzard can be harsh, but seeing the aftermath of a muskox herd almost buried in snow makes it worth it.

The ecosystem in South Africa relies on fires in order to start fresh. However, these fires can be dangerous to people and animals. Witnessing the inc

Stumbled upon this tiny stream in my closest forest. I'm convinced there are trolls in there!

Monkeys of all kinds are always my favourite species to photograph, particularly when I can capture this gaze. Feeling lucky that this mini human woul

As I explored the savannahs of South Africa, I saw this majestic king of the bush. The massive bull was trekking in search of water in the scorching heat. The glow surrounding the animal in the picture is the elephant throwing dust at itself in order to stay cool.

Stunning image

Elephants for my life

Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in South Africa at a nature reservoir

Time

This was taken during the early evening, just before sunset started

Lighting

Whats most important for wildlife photography is that the animal’s face is lit properly

Equipment

Here I used a Canon 750D with a rented Canon 100-400mm lens

Inspiration

The magnificent view of the elephant marching across the plains stunned me completely

Editing

Very little post processing was done here

In my camera bag

I always bring my Canon 7D2, a Canon 18-135mm and a Tamron 150-600mm. This gives me flexibility to capture whatever I stumble upon as well the reach I need for wildlife

Feedback

The best advice is to be out there so you can capture what you find
