ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Perched high on the rocks of the Gol Kopjes, three male cheetahs scan the Serengeti for their next hunt. Muscles tense, eyes locked on the horizon — every sense is awake, waiting for the slightest movement in the grass below. Moving as one, they rely on trust and precision, their coordination turning the plains into a field of calculated opportunity. In this moment of stillness, they are already preparing for the chase.

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.
