With calls for nature and wildlife conservation growing ever louder – and rightly so – it’s no surprise that young people are joining these impassioned ranks in their droves, determined to secure a brighter future for our planet. And among them is a bevy of wildlife photographers whose talent is sure to knock your socks off!
As we put together this collection of the most inspirational youngsters, we thought who better to introduce them than our resident nature expert, James Lowen, author of
A Summer of British Wildlife and
52 Wildlife Weekends? Here’s what he had to say:
"They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Nowhere is that more true than in our social-media world – think Instagram for a start. Accordingly, it is exciting to see Bradt Guides' curation of talented young photographers seeking to use their favoured medium to do good for the world – in this case, to strengthen conservation action, whether globally or locally. They make an impressive cadre. And the world's future might just be a little safer in their hands."
