(sound on 🎧) Here’s a small taste of what I’ve been up to! 🎞 A teaser for a film to come for @incab_brasil and @institutoipe highlighting their work preserving tapirs in the Brazilian Amazon. Still on expedition now so it’ll be a while before the full thing is released... (swipe left for part 2)🌳 music by @musoscientific

To the pub!!! 🐃

The new frontline 🌳 Deforestation in the #BrazilianAmazon has suddenly and horrifically jumped this year to the highest rate seen in years. 739 sq km of forest were lost in the month of May alone. That’s the equivalent of 2 football pitches every minute I’m currently on expedition in the southern amazon filming several projects to highlight the challenges this region is facing. A short teaser will be dropping soon! #deforestion #amazon #rainforest #brazil #nature #drone #mavicpro #dji #extinction #forest #endangered #landscape #nature #logging #brazil #southamerica #travelshots #naturephotography

Rio sunrise 🌅 🇧🇷 I’m beginning a 30 day filming expedition with @incab_brasil @institutoipe as they scout locations through the arc of deforestation in the southern amazon. This is to respond to the emerging threats facing the region and establish a long term lowland tapir conservation program. Follow their account for updates from the field!

Sunrise on the cordillera talamanca. This is one of the last large areas of wilderness remaining in Central America, a chain of mountains running from the Central Valley of Costa Rica to the north of you panama and covered by rainforest, cloud forest and high altitude savannah. #mountains #landscape #costarica #talamanca #natgeoyourshot #sunrise #colours #travel #hiking #outdoors #naturephotography #centralamerica #nature

Bit late to the party for #endangeredspeciesday, but here’s a lesson in how to outstare a leaf and win 👁 🍃. . Panamanian night monkey in the Darien gap, Panama. These cute suckers live communally in tree holes and take turns to keep watch for predators in the day. Unlike any other monkeys outside their group, they are mostly nocturnal. So little is known about them that population trends are unknown. However, their range is heavily threatened by deforestation and hunting, and they are likely in danger of extinction.

‘Aroma’, Manilla. An ironic name unless the word ‘aroma’ conjures connotations of decaying garbage, dust, sweat and piss. This was supposed to be a temporary housing estate in the 90’s, but after decades of neglect and broken promises, aroma is decidedly still here, and thousands of families are crammed into an area wedged next to the port of manilla. It’s also a dump site. Mention the name to many people and the first words to come out are ‘drugs’, ‘scavengers’, ‘criminals’. What many people miss is that there are tens of thousands of people here, all with their own stories and individual lives and all trying to survive, having been left behind by a city that has moved on.

Not the typical project I’m used to working on. I’m currently in Tondo, Philippines, also known as the dump site of manilla. Literally hundreds of tonnes of trash are dumped in this district daily where local people scrape a living by scavenging recyclable materials to sell and food to eat. I’m currently working with the @purplecommunityfund training and equipping young people, mostly girls, from this community how to shoot films and document life around them with the hope that this will eventually lead to a career or internships, or just an artistic outlet to represent themselves and their world around them with. If you’d like to help support this project get in touch! Would particularly love to connect with production companies based in the Philippines. . . . . #Philippines #tondo #community #projects #livelihoods #filmmaking #recycle #purplcommunityfund #southeastasia

As if someone set out to design the most beautiful bird in Central America, then decided at the last minute to ruin it all with the face. This is the endangered, endemic and stunning, occilated turkey from Guatemala.
