I got a lovely piece of news recently. I managed to get an image into the Fuji/Getaway Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2011!
This competition is the biggest competition in Africa, so it is always nice to be a part of it! The competition was stiff, as it always is, with great talent being showcased from around the continent.
My image, Celebrity, sneaked into the ‘People in Nature’ category; a category that highlights the relationship between humans and wildlife. I have tried images like this for years, and came close, but this particular image had a little something extra.
It is a competition I have won before (2006), and the dream of a second win is still on the cards, so keep an eye on next years awards…
