Lion Tree
The most dangerous tree in the world? Well, I'd say this one is up for the prize. On the northern edge of the Serengeti National Park is where I found bliss. A pride of lions that have learned to climb trees! This is not typical lion behavior nor should it be, considering if you need to get away from a charging lion and if you forgot all the rules about lions...and ran from it!
This is one of my favorite shots, and one of my most sold images. Lion Tree is a Kigelia tree or "sausage" tree filled with lions. I'm coining that one. The "sausages" are actually a fruit that is poisonous to humans when not ripe, but can be eaten, when cooked. Many animas eat sausage fruit including elephants, primates, hippos, giraffe, bush pigs, and antelope.
Piezography Editions on Hahnemühle Paper
In my pursuit of the richest tonal range and the most faithful translation of my vision, I turn to Piezography—a process perfected by Cone Editions Press in Vermont. Known for its unrivaled subtlety in black-and-white printing, Piezography uses carbon-based inks that produce breathtaking detail, velvety blacks, and an almost infinite spectrum of mid-tones.
Each print is created on museum-grade Hahnemühle fine art paper, whose luxurious surface and archival qualities provide the perfect foundation for the work. The combination of this paper’s tactile beauty and Piezography’s precision results in images that are both technically exquisite and emotionally resonant.
Like my platinum/palladium prints, these works are crafted to endure—both as physical objects and as vessels for the stories they carry—allowing the viewer to experience the depth and nuance of the original moment for generations to come.
This is a limited edition print of 21.
