This is my beautiful picture of the sunrise over the sand forest. I recently traveled to Tembe Elephant Park to research and photograph Africa's largest elephants, the giant tuskers. Tembe is located in South Africa between Zululand and Mozambique.

A new book coming soon! The story of Isilo, one of the last great tuskers of Africa, is told through the eyes of his young son Simon. This youthful, fun-loving elephant just wants to play and create mischief. But as he grows up, his mother takes him on a journey to find out what happened to his father. Follow along as Simon learns the fate of his father and discovers his own destiny.

National Geographic recommends reading "When Eagles Roar: The Amazing Journey of an African Wildlife Adventurer" before traveling on safari to South Africa in 2016. Great for the armchair traveler as well!
