Over the course of his 30-year career, Art Wolfe has worked on every continent and in hundreds of locations. His stunning images interpret and record the world’s fast-disappearing wildlife and act as a lasting inspiration to those who seek to preserve the very subjects recorded in his images. Art’s photographs are recognized throughout the world for their mastery of color, composition and perspective. I’m most impressed with his action shots and closeups. Here are some of my favorite animal shots from his portfolio.
