Update #2: Andy Rouse

As someone who has an interest in animals, I tried to search for animal photostories. This came to be harder than I thought it would be as not many people have decided to do photostories on animals, which could mean that if I were to pursue it, it could be unique and individual.

Although, I have found a photographer named Andy Rouse, who travels the world in order to get good photostories of the wildlife and animals, such as on safari parks. I think this is incredible as he really goes out of his way in order to get some of the best photos around the world. One of his biggest projects involves his wildlife photos being put together in order to feature on a documentary on TV in 2009. 

He has won awards for his wildlife photography including 9 awards in the past 7 years in the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition, several Nature's Best awards and a few European Wildlife Photographer of the Year awards.

Andy does a lot of film as well as photos, in order to produce what he has captured on his travels to an audience. He also produces books of his work, which include all his photos and also explanations of his wildlife experiences. He has books to focus on specific photo stories, for example, a recent book he has released is Tigers: A Celebration to Life, where he donated 25% of the profit to a tiger conservation, currently raising over £8000.

I appreciate these photos a lot as he captures just how beautiful the animals are, and the animals in their natural habitat. I also adore the fact that he travels in order to capture the images, showing that it is his true passion.
