One of the many highlights of our recent India safari was spending time with the dholes, also known as Asiatic wild dogs.

Often overshadowed by tigers and leopards, they are fascinating animals in their own right – highly social, intelligent and incredibly successful hunters.

I’ve recently returned from an incredible trip to India, visiting 4 of the country’s 107 National Parks. Thousands of images to sort through, but one of our first memorable encounters came in Satpura, where we photographed several sloth bears.

I've recently returned from a photography trip to Bulgaria where our guide was Bogdan Boev Wildlife Photography. We visited several locations and I have written a blog about one of those experiences. I hope you enjoy it.

As our time in Churchill drew to a close there was one set of polar bear images I still wanted to get - a mother with her cub. Amazingly on the last day I got my wish: a heartwarming moment of a mother polar bear tenderly nuzzling her cub. What a finish to a great trip.

“At the Edge of the Ice”: This polar bear stepped out onto the sea ice but global warming has been taking its toll; the ice is late forming and is not yet strong enough to support his weight. His last proper meal was over 140 days ago.

"Subarctic Crossing": There was beautiful rim lighting on this mother polar bear and her cub as they calmly walked past a line of vehicles.
