I haven't had a chance to post much recently, as I've been filming. Not wildlife, but TV commercials.
Since I turned professional (photographically speaking) last April, I've managed to fund several trips to Africa and elsewhere, but eventually the money always runs out....and that's when I return to what I used to do in another lifetime- writing advertisements and then making them happen.
I've really enjoyed my brief return to the world of commercials, and I'd like to thank my chums at Saatchi & Saatchi London for thinking of me when they needed to hire a copywriter in double quick time.
The work should fund my return to Madagascar next year. The last time I was there was with a film camera, and I have to say was something of a disaster. This time, though, it will be different.
In the meantime, here's a random shot of a cheetah that I spent time with in Namibia at the cheetah conservation project- a most worthwhile organisation and one that deserves our support. I've spoken about it in previous posts, so I won't do so again, but if you have a spare minute, look them up on the interweb.
And if you're really keen, you can hunt down the upcoming issue of 'Travel Zambia' magazine, which has a substantial piece of writing by the long-suffering-Dilly, illustrated with some of my photographs, and, I believe, a smaller piece by myself giving the low down on crocodile photography.
So on that note, I wish you all a happy holidays, and I shall return in January with more free time and a whole lot of new photographs to share. I'm thinking that it's time we put a few tigers on here - whadda you reckon?!
Now it's back to the edit suite for me. A copywriters work is never done. Until Christmas Eve, anyway.
Thanks for reading....
