The World of a Wildlife Photographer

A talk by David Boag

This entertaining lecture spans 35 years of photography and take us to 5 continents. The questions David is most often asked are about his ‘favourites’! What are the pictures you are most pleased with – what is the best place you have visited – which subjects do you most enjoy photographing? Working his way through his commissions over a span of 30 years, he brings us right up to date with his latest and most exciting project.
