"With each day spent outdoors I am reminded of what a beautiful
world we all call home, and the challenges that face ecosystems
across the world." - Alfie Bowen "The photographs are outstanding,
and the story behind them inspirational. Given the odds stacked
against Alfie throughout his life, this book is a significant
success and bodes very well for a continued and very inspiring
career as a world-class photographer." - Chris Packham Alfie Bowen
is an exceptionally talented young autistic photographer and
wildlife activist. His latest project offers a glimpse into the
private lives of numerous wild animals from across the globe and
reveals the highs and lows of living as an autistic environmental
campaigner. Bowen's photographs are truly breath-taking. Hours are
invested into every piece to ensure the results are exactly as
Bowen envisioned, and Bowen conducts in-depth research on every
animal he captures, believing it is of the utmost importance to
understand his subjects. In this book, Bowen discusses overcoming
the limitations of technology and how autism has given him the
obsession needed to persevere in often cold, lonely and difficult
circumstances. From Bowen's relation of his struggle to capture the
perfect picture of a cheetah, to his majestic portraits of some of
the most beloved animals on the planet, this book captures the
powerful sensory experience Bowen enjoys whenever he immerses
himself in nature. Featured animals include: lions, cheetahs,
leopards, tigers, snow leopards, Geoffrey's cats, red pandas,
chimpanzees, monkeys and colobuses, lemurs, elephants, rhinos,
giraffes, zebras, deer, flamingos, eagles and other birds, and koi.
