"Lonely Boy"

When growing up in a man's world it can be lonely. When you are a monkey it means extinction.

Biography: I'm an Australian photographer specialising in wildlife. I focus mainly on primate in the wild and those in zoos, rescue and rehabilitation centres. I care passionately about our endangered species and share my concern through exhibiting images in galleries and online. In 2015 I began a project called ICU TOO, which has been an ongoing non- profit collection of photographs, and my way of giving back to the animals. I'm inspired in life by people such as Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey and Sir David Attenborough.
