Yet I faced the challenge:
how could a single photograph convey the passage of time as wildlife habitats disappeared?
A Research-led Photojournalism and Documentary Practice
Nowhere to Hide
this was not the original intention for this project. Rather, I began as an observer, silently witnessing the unfolding of wildlife events during numerous visits to the nature parks of Hluhluwe, iMfolozi, Kruger and Fugitives Drift Reserve in South Africa 25 years ago.
As my awareness of climate issues grew
my work in the IT industry exposed gaps in technological ethics and global impact. These realisations brought me back to the project, shifting my perspective from observer to storyteller.
A non-conventional approach
I opted to emulate Kodak Aerochrome Infrared film
By registering infrared light which is invisible to the naked eye, as it reflects off chlorophyll in green plants,
this exposes the wildlife,
which in turn reveals their fragility and changing environment in the South African bush.

The parks are not small; Kruger National Park, for example, covers an area of 19,623 km2

Coming face to face
For many people who come face to face with the majestic wildlife on the South African plains, in their own words, it changes the way they see how we are affecting the global ecosystems where wildlife inhabit.
