In Idaho, Merrill, who often covers the intersection of travel and conservation, found the stubborn resilience of the Chinook salmon to be remarkable. “There is still hope that they can make a strong comeback,” he says. Kehrer Verlag will publish a book on Merrill’s Everyday Africa project in October.

It really is one of the most beautiful countries in the world,” says the goldsmith-turned-photographer, who was born and raised in Edinburgh. For this issue’s feature on the hit show Outlander, Powell visited some familiar childhood haunts and had a few surprises, like the gamekeeper he and the crew met who claimed to have once fought an adult deer.

Chief Executive Officer JOSEPH RIPP Chief Content Officer NORMAN PEARLSTINE ARTHUR WOODCROFT “WILD AT HEART”, PAGE 80 “I know it is a cliché to say, ‘Never work with children or animals‘,” says the London-based photographer, a regular contributor to magazines such as Sunday Times Style and British GQ. “I can say, however, that shooting for Departures was rather eventful, not least when one of the frogs made a jump for the camera, and snakes scared away the food caterer. Other than this, all the animals were very professional and great fun to work with!”
