For sure, all over Poland, kids had my picture of a lemur on their bedroom wall - but the chances are they may never get to see a real lemur in Madagascar. I thought this was great and it really meant a lot to me.

In The States I would have no edge, no advantage at all.

I also had a tremendous passion for art and read a lot.

The Kalahari is brilliant - and easy to visit.

Photography started as a means of getting reference material for my paintings of nature subjects.

I concentrate on the southern African subcontinent.

I also like flyfishing - maybe I would have figured a way to make a living out of that?
