On Open Plains: Coming Soon
Created over the last three years during William’s shoots across Africa, Asia and the Arctic, this collection features some of William’s most engaging work to date.
Focussed, as ever, on wild subjects in their natural environment, every shot has been taken by hand without the use of remote cameras, something William has always deemed a crucial aspect of his work.
“It is vital to me all my work is created by hand, without remotes. The ability to react at a split seconds notice can be the difference between a good image and a great one, it allows me to read my subjects emotions and portray that to the viewer, ensuring the image is as close to the wild encounter as it can possibly be.”
— William Fortescue
“On Open Plains refers to the space these amazing creatures need. If we allow them the space to do so, they will thrive, but that space is eroding rapidly. Hopefully each image can be a reminder of what happens when wildlife is given the space it needs.”
— William Fortescue
