“As a conservation photographer, I have always believed that if science is the brain that will decipher how to preserve our planet, then photography is the heart that drives us toward that action. A great image can bring a story to life and inspire thought and conversation. And when we are able to normalize conversations over difficult conservation issues, that is when society can take meaningful action toward change. In this issue, we celebrate both the wild characters in frame and the passionate drive and talent behind the viewfinder.”
