Chasing moments — preferably underwater. Gear is the lifestyle.

This oceanic white tip reef shark was swimming straight towards me. Changed direction only inches from the 8mm fish eye lens I was using.

Imagine being in a dark cave, losing your own guideline, and having to find it again - only by touch!

One of the more mentally demanding skills in cave diving.

To where are they going? I always wonder that. Seemingly sitting still in the water, but actually moving.

Schools of fish like this one are so wondrous to experience.

Not sure who Darwin thinks will come out ahead.

All the impalas were locked onto the obvious threat: A lone hyena, lounging in the sun.

Except one. That stared straight at me—like I was the bigger concern?

Imagine sitting in a car. Watching her graze in the tall grass just off to the side of the road. And then - suddenly - she turns and looks directly at you. In that moment, you feel just how big elephants truly are.

Forever renamed.
Even the safari guides have stopped using the real name.
Every time one trots by, snout deep in the dirt, it’s just - “There’s Pumba.”

On a mission. Nose to the ground. Pure focus.
Early morning in the Mara. We spot this hyena, locked in on a scent trail, completely unfazed by our presence.We had just passed a zebra carcass by the roadside. #photography #naturephotography #hyena

Getting eye contact makes the image that much more engaging! But is definitely a challenge in the wild. This was the closest I got; out of hundreds images of this beautiful, majestic male lion.
