The Leopard’s Whiskers is a book composed with our grandchildren firmly in mind. We are privileged to frequently visit the beguiling content that is Africa and enjoy photographing the wilderness experience. They say patience is a virtue. It is certainly is a necessary discipline for wildlife photography. Long periods of waiting allow the mind to run free and the opportunity for all manner of senseless doggerel to surface. Every story in the book has some anchor in truth to our African experience (well sort of).
