Andy Parkinson<br />
Andy works exclusively with animals<br />
and birds that are wild and free, and<br />
immerses himself in the life <strong>of</strong> his<br />
subjects in order to produce images<br />
<strong>of</strong> behaviours that have never been<br />
captured before. His recent work with<br />
gannets, on assignment for National<br />
Geographic, is an example <strong>of</strong> this.<br />
He spent three months living on the<br />
northernmost tip <strong>of</strong> the Shetland Islands<br />
and had three <strong>of</strong> his tents destroyed by<br />
ferocious gales there!<br />
