Martin Sean Fine Art Wildlife Prints | Limited Edition
https://martinsean.photography/ Martin Sean is a wildlife and nature photographer based in London, UK.

He has been photographing some of the natural world’s most iconic creatures and locations for over 20 years and specialises in creating fine art black and white prints that are carefully selected from his diverse portfolio of work. His travels have taken him to every continent, many an island and some of the most remote locations on the planet. His passion for photography truly took off when he be

came a scuba diver and began exploring the fascinating and totally alien world beneath the waves. He aspired to share it’s largely unseen beauty with as many people as possible. This was made substantially easier with the advent of digital photography and as an underwater photographer Martin was one of those early adopters who could clearly see the massive benefits of having more than just a 36 shot reel to work with. He is also a qualified dive master and technical diver who has been to a depth of over 100 m/330 ft, far beyond the limits of normal recreational scuba diving. Some of the notable dive locations that he has visited include the Galapagos archipelago, Indonesia, the Philippines, the Maldives and the Red Sea. As a true lover of all things nature and a passionate explorer, his interests inevitably widened to include land-based photography as well. Not one to eschew extreme environments and remote locations, over the last few years he has spent much of his time photographing subjects in places such as the Arctic & Antarctic, as well as many of the world’s great deserts, jungles and plains. Some of his favourites include Norway’s Svalbard archipelago, South Georgia island, Antarctica, Mongolia, Vietnam, Namibia, Kenya, Egypt and of course his native United Kingdom. Through his work, Martin aims to both celebrate the beauty of the natural world and raise awareness about the challenges it faces from us, humanity. Ultimately, he hopes that these snapshots into the lives of unique individuals and species will inspire people to preserve our planet’s vanishing natural wonders through more than just images.

Black-faced impala (Aepyceros melampus petersi)

These elegant impalas are a sub-species of the common impala originally from the northwest of Namibia, introduced to Etosha National Park in the 1970s. They are darker than other impala and are so-called due to their characteristic black face. They tend to keep to dense riverine vegetation during the day, lying in the thickets to escape the heat. Modest vegetation zones are also attractive to them. They are gregarious creatures and occur in small herds of between 3 and 15 and larger herds during the mating season. Solitary males team up with harems of females and their offspring.

The leopard is a beautiful and majestic creature, and this photo perfectly captures its grace and power. The long tail is one of the leopard's most distinctive features, perfectly adapted for life in the trees. The leopard is an expert hunter, and its powerful claws enable it to climb effortlessly through the branches.

Whenever I look at this photo, I am transfixed and transported right back to the night I took it in Zambia.

Black-browed albatross

These fantastic birds, once fledged, can go years on the wing before returning to land to breed when they're about ten years of age. To me, they symbolise freedom and wanderlust.

But the reality is they are under threat from longline fishing.

This is a popular method of fishing used in the Southern Ocean to obtain high quantities of bluefin tuna, ling, snapper, hoki and Patagonian toothfish. The way that longlining works is that fishermen set out a single line up to 130 km long behind their boat. They then attach to the line thousands of baited hooks.

Once the longlines are sunk, they do not affect the birds, but while floating behind the boats, albatrosses and petrels try and take the bait but may end up swallowing the hook and then drowning. According to Bird Life International, more than 300,000 seabirds are killed every year this way, including 100,000 albatrosses.
