If you’re looking for a great Christmas present, check out the latest book from Tom Peschak, Wild Seas, Secret Shores of Africa. It is available from most leading South African book stores, as well as from amazon.co.uk  if you don’t live in South Africa.

Tom has mastered the recipe for blending dry science with salacious imagery and prose, and the broth that he cooks up in this instance is a feast.

What sets Tom’s imagery apart is his commitment to creating images that put you in the action, through the use of a style on large and small animals alike that is almost macro-wide angle in nature. Another great feature of this book is a section at the back which features all of the images in the book with a short story of how it was shot, including the relevant camera settings
