About the Item
Pigment/Inkjet
"This is one of the most dramatic photographs I have ever taken, and I am the first to admit that luck plays a crucial part in the success of the image. This is the beauty of working with nature, moments constantly change and are full of surprises.
There are so many elements to the photograph that it allows us to engage with the scene for considerable time. The fighting zebras are clearly the main focus with the billowing dust as they rear up in battle. But the locusts were the biggest surprise for me; I had no idea they were there until viewing the file on my computer and they play an important role in the composition. They fill a void preventing a looseness to the scene while leading our eye around the photograph, from left to right and then back to the main subjects.
The zebras are not fighting for females, they are fighting because times are tough, with almost no food and limited water. And so, the locusts have another role in that they help communicate the story of how tough a drought is for the wildlife; as they fly away from the scene, it suggests that there is nothing left in this barren landscape. The dramatic skies also aid in telling the narrative but most importantly, they create the perfect stage for an epic fight.
There is something so thrilling about not knowing whether or not you got the shot you hoped for, and this was an occasion where everything came together. Every time I look at this image, it motivates me to continue my attempts to capture photographs that cannot be re taken."

Wildlife fine art photographer and conservationist, James Lewin, is entirely self-taught and first became interested in photography whilst in Kenya. Alongside his love of photography, James is an ardent conservationist and in partnership with Isabella Garrucho Fine Art we donates 20% of all image sales directly back to the conservation charities in the areas where the images were taken. Organizations like the Big Life Foundation, The Serengeti Cheetah Project, Reteti Elephant Sanctuary, Tsavo Trust, Borana Conservancy, The Mara Elephant Project and Lewa Conservancy, These organizations mission it is to protect the Elephants, Lions, Giraffes, Rhinos and Leopards he photographs along with their natural habitat.
James's photographs are offered in 3 different printing formats / styles:
Small Archival Pigment Prints:
The most commonly used among professional photographers. Pigment Prints are made by digital inkjet printers, which mix ink to create specific hues. The ink is then applied directly to paper in fine detail.
Medium / Large Silver Gelatin Prints:
The gold standard in black and white printing which surpasses archival pigment prints in longevity, quality and detail.
Premium Edition Platinum Palladium Prints:
The prints selected are made in a darkroom and were very popular in the late 19th century. It uses platinum palladium as the light-sensitive material and has the very best archival rating of any print over 2,000+ years.
This photograph will be printed once payment has been received and will ship directly from the printer the artist works with. Your certificate of authenticity will be shipped separately from your print and in most cases will ship directly from the gallery.
The Gallery is more than happy to provide clients with the next available edition number, however, the Gallery can only guarantee the specific edition number the client will receive once payment has been received.
