This image was taken on our first landing in South Georgia at Right Whale Bay. It was my first time in South Georgia & whilst I had watched documentaries in preparation it was still an overwhelming sight to behold.
As I moved across the beach I noticed two things- a small group of penguins moving along the horizon & a stormy sky behind them & knew the potential in the scene in front of me. I lay down on the beach to get as low as possible to avoid the horizon crossing through them & then waited until they were in the right position. Of the handful of images this was my favourite in terms of the positioning of the three kings against a broody southern Atlantic sky.

DESCRIPTION
AUTHOR
After 30 years working in the television industry, I took a leap of faith & decided to follow my passion & become a full-time wildlife photographer.
I hope you will find in my work nuances of light, composition, and storytelling. I want my images to provoke an emotion or a spark of curiosity.
I particularly love the timeless beauty & elegance of black & white images & I am increasingly looking for those subjects & environments where I know black & white will enhance the final image.
More than ever, I seek an unmistakable sense of place in my photography. It is an evolving part of my style as a photographer. As I compose an image my eye is constantly seeking to capture & frame the raw beauty & majesty not only of the wildlife in front of my lens, but equally important to me is the environment around it.
My work has been recognized in competitions run by the WNPA, Mono Awards, Muse & Refocus Awards. My images also support the conservation work of Mara Elephant Project & 10% of prints sales go towards various conservation charities in Africa.
I will be exhibiting at Windsor Art Fair in November.
