Publisher’s Note

 

KC BAILEY

 
 

Readers, we have an exciting announcement that we are now partnering with the world-renowned Bay Photo. Bay Photo is a well-known photography image printer that can handle prints of all sizes and formats and ship them globally. Imagine seeing your prized wildlife image hanging on the wall! We have been printing the Wild Lens Magazine Wildlife Photographer of the Year on metal prints from Bay Photo Lab for the last four years running and they really capture the natural beauty of the images. This incredible collaboration will enable The Wild Lens Magazine to expand its reach, increase distribution, and access even more incredible photographers. 

In this issue, we proudly feature Frans Lanting and his involvement with the preservation of the breathtakingly innate world of the Monterey Bay in northern California. This includes his successful community awareness projects Bay of Life and One Ride at a Time. Learn about his unparalleled wildlife tours & workshops which allow attendees to immerse themselves in the subject. We at The Wild Lens really support his ethical approach to wildlife tours and approaching wild animals.  Also, in this issue, we feature Sri Lanka’s Avanka Fernando and his incredible portfolio of photos, all taken his home country of Sri Lanka. Denise Peterson tells an incredible story through her camera trap images of “America’s Ghost Cat,” Utah’s mountain lions, and their precarious position with the hunting and trapping legislation of the region. Regular contributor Ranjan Ramchandani provides a two-continent portfolio of Africa and South America with some images that that will delight. (The darling lion cub images delighted this publisher!)

We are a photographer-based publication designed for photographers and would love your perspective about what you would like to see featured on these pages and gladly accept contributions from all over the world. Please feel free to contact the publisher at michelle@thewildlensmagazine.com for more information.

We look forward to hearing from you.
