A young adolescent male 🦁 feeding on a Wilderbeast with 3 of it's brothers and sisters that it's mama took down in @kapamaprivategamereserve in South Africa a few days ago. The look of intent in his eyes was incredible. Today's topic of discussion focusing on wildlife is captivity. What do you think about Zoos or Sanctuaries? I photographed these lions in the wild, which helped make it that much more special in my mind. What are your thoughts?

A portrait of a male adult 🦁 taken this afternoon at the @kapamaprivategamereserve in South Africa. Seeing these amazing creatures out in the wild is an incredibly humbling experience. The sheer power and beauty of these creatures demands our respect and our love. In continuing our community discussion this week about Wildlife photography, let's talk about telephoto lenses. Do you have one? What telephoto lens is your favorite? What questions do you have?

I love playing with shutter speeds and motion when it comes to seascapes and the place I have spent the most at over the last few years experimenting has been the famous Jokulsarlon region of South Iceland. Every wave, every iceberg, every image is different and unique. Which one of these are your favorite and why? What can you learn from the ones you didn't select?

In a quick deviation from my current travels to South Africa, I wanted to share one of my most popular wildlife images. This photo of a Puffin was taken on Grimsey Island in the far North of Iceland. The turquoise ocean waters behind the bird allowed for it to stand out and really pop off the screen. To get this shot I had to snipe crawl through tons of bird poop and tic infested sea cliffs to get close enough to the Puffins. Not for the faint of heart! Today's topic of discussion revolves around going to extra mile to get the shot. Have you ever pushed yourself physically or mentally to get an image? What is the story behind it? What questions do you have? Join our growing photo/travel community here in IG by engaging with each other, asking questions and helping each other out. The more you engage on these posts, the more I can reward you :) Sony a6300 Sony 70-200 f/4 G #BeAlpha #SonyAlpha

As I have said before, the experience of witnessing Silverback Gorillas up close and in person in the wild is bar none, one of the most amazing experiences of my career and my life. They are such incredible creatures that share SOO much in common with us (close to 98% of our DNA to be exact). This post is in continuation with my focus on Wildlife photography for the next 10 days as I am down here in South Africa near Kruger National Park. Today let's talk about being responsible travel and wildlife photographers. Do you practice the "Leave No Trace" mentality? What questions do you have about safely doing wildlife photography. Join our community and engage in the comments below! More wildlife photographing coming!

The starry nights over places like Zion National Park in Utah can be incredible. To me there is something special about the color contrast on finds when comparing the earth tones found in desert landscapes such as this one with the ethereal feeling of the night sky. This brings me to today's topic, the South West of the US. Have you been before? What questions do you have? What are your favorite locations? Ask, engage and join in the discussion below!

A young adolescent Hyena found the other morning not too far from his make shift den. These creatures are sadly misunderstood and vilified thanks to Disney! Did you know they are smarter then chimps, female centric and are cunning hunters? Soon capturing an image like this will be much easier...why? Because of Sony's new "Eye AF" that is coming to wildlife photography, a first for the industry. It will be a game changer when you can easily look onto an animals eyes, making sure they are tac sharp every single time. As usual, Sony leading the way! Today's discussion revolves around how new technology can help you get "the shot". What new tools do you find yourself using with the gear you have? What new features would you love to come out in the next generation of cameras? Image Details: Sony a9 Sony 400 f/2.8 GM w/ 2X TC at 800mm #BeAlpha #SonyAlpha

Today marks the start of yet another African adventure. This time to incredible country of South Africa. I will be spending the next 10 days photographing & filming wildlife in and around Kruger National Park, sharing all of my adventures along the way. For today's post we are talking about Wildlife Photography. Have you tried it before? What would you photograph if money wasn't an issue? Like this post, join in the conversation below and enjoy! I will share more via IG stories soon!

Some say that black and white photography can be more powerful than traditional color images. The idea is fairly simple...color can be distracting and pull you away from the significance of the subject, the tonality of the scene and the feeling of connection to an image. This image of a passing storm in Torres del Paine National Park in Southern Patagonia called for a black & white treatment in my mind. Let's see if this B&W image can break through the Instagram algorithms! Unsurprisingly, today's topic is going to be Black & White Photography. What questions do you have? Do you create black and white images? What tools do you use? What advice do you have for others. Let the discussion begin below!
