ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The storm has passed, and the plains are silent. From his granite throne, the lion surveys his territory — every movement in the distance under his watch. Below, the lioness remains hidden in the grass, alert and ready. The scene captures a fragile pause in the rhythm of the wild: power above, patience below, balance restored after the rain.

AUTHOR
I’m a passionate amateur wildlife photographer who, by day, practices law. My journey into photography began at a young age, experimenting with black and white photography and developing my own prints in a darkroom at home. Over the years, I explored various genres of photography, but it was the pandemic that ignited my deep love for wildlife photography. Africa’s diverse landscapes and fascinating creatures have become a central focus of my work, capturing the timeless beauty of the natural world through the lens of black and white photography. The pandemic also kindled my determination to delve deep into the techniques of photography and the understanding of what goes into capturing a remarkable shot, fueling my desire to explore other continents in the future to photograph the new Big 5 and share their beauty with my photographs.

There’s no sensation quite like being in front of a lion, walking toward me with the perfect angle for a shot, or lying on my belly on the ground as a line of elephants approaches my camera. These moments in the wild are unparalleled, and through my photography, I aim to convey the awe and wonder that these encounters bring.
