What an incredible three days and a huge success for rhino and wildlife conservation!! Photographers, conservationists, and supporters from around the globe flew into London for the opening exhibit and book launch for Remembering Rhinos. There is absolute hope we can all come together and make a huge difference in saving our wildlife for many generations to come! Words cannot begin to describe one of the most magical experiences on this journey to date, which included:
- The camaraderie amongst like-minded passionate photographers and conservationists
- Seeing the beautiful book edited by Keith Wilson with my image included
- Seeing the book at the Natural History Museum
- The inspiration of Margot Raggett, the founder of Remembering Wildlife
- Being part of the exhibit and meeting the couple that bought my print on opening night
- Volunteering at the art gallery
- Attending the book launch at the Royal Geographical Society
- Meeting and hearing Johan Marais speak, the man behind Saving The Survivors, a true story of hope
- Sitting alongside some of the most respected names in wildlife photography and signing hundreds of books
It has been an incredible privilege and honor to be one of the contributing photographers.
The book is filled with stunning images, an inspiration for anyone passionate about photography, wildlife, and nature, offering a profound look at what we have to lose should we not win the fight against poaching. The people on the front line are the true champions fighting to save our endangered species for the generations behind us. 100% of the proceeds of the book will go to rhino conservation. The books are a great holiday gift. Order a book here.
