Our sincere thanks to James, 50% of this payment will go towards the Foundation.  James quotes:  Alongside our origin this is the most important time in our history to be a human being. We have never had such power to create or destroy, and the future of so many of our fellow animals rests on a knife’s edge. The images we see of the current state of our planet, while important, can often leave people with a dangerous sense of futility and despair. There is so much wilderness left to protect, and this can only be achieved if we believe it can. I am honoured to be a part of a young and dynamic team of ambassadors supporting a conservation initiative that not only actively protects wildlife but does so through the celebration of its beauty”.

James’s style and images portray wildlife as totems within the realm of their kingdom, a palette of awe, fragility, reverence, and mysticism. He works together with the animals to create photographs with deep respect and sensitivity.
