Mountaineering was his first passion, where he learnt how to climb as well as how to survive in tough conditions. He . found himself getting more and more fascinated with the unique wildlife and documenting what he had seen on camera. His big break came when he received first prize for a photograph he had taken of a grizzly bear in the Rocky ‘Mountains in North America. He was soon approached by 20 an international magazine to photograph animals that live in mountain areas. His first job was to return to the Rocky Mountains to document the lives of grey wolves. ‘I ended up searching for them high and low and got some great photos 15 of the deer that they hunt, too. I soon realised that being a wildlife photographer ticked all the boxes: travel, adventure and climbing’ He's now a world-renowned photographer and has had his work exhibited in numerous galleries. ‘I came along at the right time, he says. ‘When I started, there were a number 20 of people who were known for their work in the jungle or the desert, but I realised that there weren't any skilled climbers among them. So I became the person who took pictures of wildlife high up. It was as if all these animals and birds were waiting to be photographed in their natural 25 habitats. The technology was very different then. You could easily run out of film, but with digital cameras you can go on taking photos until you get the right shot. You can also take the photos straightaway without waiting for the right light, ‘as most cameras adjust for 20 this automatically’ —E... ‘I think the root of my success was that was able to throw myself into the job straightaway. Unlike most climbers, I was a keen photographer, and unlike most photographers, I was a keen climber. I've spent so much time in the mountains it feels like a walk in the park. As long as you have the right experience, prepare well and know how to source food to eat and water to drink, you'll normally get the shots you're after. I have had a lot of successes and a few failures - one time Iwas in Yosemite Park to photograph bobcats at night and 1 forgot to take a camera that would take photos in the dark’ When Dennis visited the Himalayas last year to photograph snow leopards in their natural habitat, he wasn’t counting on it being an easy affair. As well as the danger of trying to photograph a big cat close up, he also came up against difficulties connected with spending a long time at high altitude and in freezing temperatures, all of which were extremely challenging. Spotting snow leopards can be hard enough, so much so that they are known as ‘the ghost of the mountains’. Finally, after three weeks, he came across the tracks of one of these animals in the snow. He was able to follow it across the mountain ridge and take photos of it living its daily life. He says that at this point he forgot about all the problems he'd had and started to enjoy the experience of being so close to a snow leopard. Looking ahead, Dennis would like to return to the Himalayas to make a documentary on how hunting and the destruction of the places where snow leopards live by the local population has led to these animals being close to extinction. Teaming 6 up with filmmakers and conservation groups, he hopes to educate local people about the risks they face and hopefully raise money for animal welfare charities. In general, Dennis says he has no regrets about turning his hobby into a job. ‘I've been lucky enough to have some fantastic experiences, but. sometimes you can be waiting for hours in dreadful conditions for the perfect shot and nothing happens! This can get you down, but the great photos and experiences make it all worthwhile. He says he doesn’t mind the hardships of spending most of his time up a mountain, but he thinks it’s frustrating that the time he spends away means that he doesn’t get to see his friends and family as often as he would like. For example, he will miss New Year celebrations this year as he has an assignment to film wildlife in Ecuador.
