Ann and Steve Toon
A prickle of cooling air on sunburned skin, a fine film of dust on the teeth, the sky a cocktail of blood orange and violet, hearts thumping enough to drown out the nightjars and the distant hoot of an owl. The race is on to find an exciting subject before sundown, somewhere out there on the margins of an African twilight (or dawn)…
This is what we live for. The wild outdoors of Africa now considered our true home.
Our ‘Africa time’ is still our most precious, after nearly 25 years of visiting on a regular basis for long periods. Wildlife photography, leading photo tours and travel-writing assignments are not ‘jobs’, but our way of life. To share these amazing experiences with others, whether in the moment out there in the bush, or through our pictures and prose, is to savour and prolong them, reliving them more intently — like bingeing repeatedly on a beloved box-set, but better. www.toonwildlife.com,
