Wild Planet Photo Magazine: Spotlight On Ross McGibbon

Posted by Ross McGibbon/ Wild Planet Photo Magazine on 5th Mar 2020

In March 2020, Wild Planet Photo Magazine featured me in its Spotlight On series, an interview exploring my journey into reptile photography, my background as a snake catcher and the experiences that have shaped my approach to photographing reptiles in the wild.

The feature discusses my photographic style, the challenges of locating and photographing wild reptiles, the equipment I use and my plans for future expeditions. It also showcases a selection of my photographs from Australia and overseas.

To see more of my work, browse my reptile photography prints.
