This is part 2 of our photo series showcasing the animals of our world. We spend a lot of time photographing fauna and this has given us the opportunity to take some great shots. There are strange creatures to be seen both on land, in lakes and under the sea and if you travel enough, you’ll start to really appreciate the different animals that our world has to offer. We’ve never felt threatened by the animals we photograph and we always give them the space and respect that they deserve.
Photographing wildlife is as rewarding as people and architecture, and these photos are our favorite animals of the world. Enjoy!

As you can see, many of the awesome animals of the world are found in Africa. If you’ve travelled through this wild continent, you’ll know what we’re talking about. We’ve found creatures in places we would never have thought to look. Having a guide can help immensely when looking for wild animals. They have local knowledge and are aware of the behaviour of wild game. No matter where we go in the world, we find incredible animals and we love photographing them every chance we get!

Love the red panda and buffalo! But all the pictures are fantastic 🙂
Thanks! I think the red panda is pretty cute 🙂

That hippo just looks so chill. I want to be that hippo.
I love how you got up close with both the big impressive wildlife, and the bugs – I think the preying mantis is my favorite.

No wonder that South Africa is the place with a diversity in wildlife and your pics have captured the real beautiful wildlife. I really loved the photographs.

You have certainly seen some amazing creatures around the world! I love the eyes on that cat in Egypt, and the beautify African giraffes and elephants, but my favourite has to be the giant panda in Chengdu sporting the “who, me?” expression on his face! Gorgeous!!
Aren’t the eyes on the cat so incredible? I had never seen anything like it and definitely had to take a picture!
