They tend to be moments in time that can never be repeated. I have said – on record – that an affirming year for me would be three or more cracking images, but I recognise that this is actually still a demanding target, because for an image to transcend at every level requires a material amount of luck as well as creative courage and technical fluency. I cannot judge my own work but equally I always know what is mundane and I will always remain my greatest critic. Photographers can be reluctant to acknowledge how boring much of their work can be, but this is an area in which I have learnt. In my mind, if a contemporary photograph is sufficiently powerful in content and evocative in light and line to be looked at for a long time, there is a chance that it has something which is art – not reportage. But there is a third variable needed to elevate an image to a higher pantheon – the dynamic of relevance. This is the most elusive of the “Holy Trinity” of factors I strive to attain. Wildlife portraits, for instance, no matter how threatened the animal in question might be to extinction, often fall down on this criterion. Such images can be immersive and visually compelling on the one hand – but lacking in a broader contemporary narrative on the other. Last December, inspired by some aerial footage taken by the renowned Canadian photographer Ed Burtynsky...

Born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1966, he is an internationally acclaimed fine art photographer and Europe’s best selling wildlife photographer. "What is the key to having an edge in my genre of photograph in 2016? It cannot purely be technical camera fluency as that would enfranchise photographers across the globe – many of whom doubtless know their camera guide appendix far better than me. Nikon may have made me an ambassador, but not on the basis of my understanding of page 239 of the manual. Of course an innate sense of compositional balance and unerring focusing ability helps, as does a literacy in the language of light. But again, whilst this may narrow down the field, none of these skills are uncommon. I am always conscious of the fact that in 2016, everyone is a photographer. My firm contention is that the key to taking transcending photographs in the field, is access to great content and this comes from research, perseverance, occasional bouts of bravery and most of all logistical excellence. These variables collectively morph into one goal – “precision’”. Without an obsession with precision, the game is down to luck and luck, by definition, is a leveller. I take issue with those that say wildlife photography is about luck, because as I grow older (and looking in the mirror I see that I have aged a great deal camping in Alaska over the last 10 days), I can reasonably argue that research and logistical excellence tilt the odds in the favour of the applicants. I want to be the best – why settle for anything less in this trade? This is not ego talking, it is natural to be the best you can be. To succeed will not be about me learning about new functions on the camera, it will be through a constancy in my commitment to homework. Alaska is the perfect example of this dynamic. To go on photographic assignment there is much more a test of map work, spontaneity, people skills and quick thinking than it is of photographic prowess per se. To do a good job in this remarkable wilderness requires a respect for logistics – indeed that is what a lead photographer in the true wild must be – a logistics expert. Let’s start with a simple check. Google “Best places to photograph grizzly bears in Alaska” and there will be about 30 options articulated. The favourite places are designed for “weekend warrior” cameramen. Brooks Falls in Katmai for instance is effectively a zoo – with heavy park warden presence and soulless viewing stands. There is no joy for me in a place like this – and I did pop in to seek that confirmation this week. I am better than sitting on a stand with a long lens along with 40 amateurs. Kodiak Island has a huge number of bears, but because big game hunting is legal there, the bears are skittish and sometimes dangerous. Hallo Bay – site of the Disney Film “Bears’” has let the success go to their heads and the bear viewing is overrated, expensive and too accessible. They also regulate far too heavily. I know, I spent two days there last week being told where to sit. That is like asking Liam Gallagher not to swear. Most of Google’s 30 favourite places, hold no visceral grip on me – they are main-stream and dull. Setting up sensible and practical remote control positions leans me towards remote river banks and the summer salmon runs. Each river has its own unique salmon run and the times not only vary between rivers over a 12 week period, but each river has a different pattern each year. If the salmon run a specific river starts on July 22nd one year, they could run 7 – 10 days either side of it the next year. This requires a need to be spontaneous and be on the ground picking up grass roots detail. “How are the fish running” became my opening gambit the second half of July. I am no fisherman either. Over these last 10 days, I have had one picture in mind – a wide angle remote control shot of a big bear on a river’s edge. Something immersive and very close. But the 2016 season has not been predictable – berries have been plentiful and bears love berries as much as salmon, so traffic in some rivers has been abnormally light. But bush plane by bush plane I narrowed down my focus to an area I knew well – 70 miles south of Illiamut on the Alaskan Peninsula. We deliberately flew very low over Funnel Creek earlier in the week and saw at least six adult bears fishing up river and so we touched down in the tiny village of Illiamut to discuss logistics. Every village in Alaska has a landing strip. The next day, we were dropped off by float plane...

"There is something ethereal about this shot, as if it were of a different world. This is apt, as it was here – near Lake Mývatn in the north-east of Iceland – that Neil Armstrong practised his lunar landing. It is certainly the place I’ve been to that most resembles the Moon. It’s also where much of “Game of Thrones” was filmed. I’ve been to Iceland many times. This picture was taken three years ago, in winter, at around 9.15 in the morning; the light was lovely but it was very cold. Visually, Iceland is far better in winter. The landscape is a gift for photographers and film-makers. But images usually involve waterfalls. I wanted to do something different, to make people do a double take. The pony is important to this. While the scene is of the other side of Iceland – about as far from Reykjavik and as wild and strange as you can get – it’s still there for anyone who travels to photograph it. The pony turns the landscape into a canvas on which to do something a bit different. It’s the right size to be at the epicentre of the picture – and the flumes behind it add that bit of magic. I don’t want to be disingenuous about how natural the picture is. We used a horse wrangler, who put up some barriers to ensure that the pony couldn’t roam out of shot. Then I waited for the composition to be just right. I try to find names for the pictures I take. There’s something rather fantastical about this one, about the medley of whites. I called it “Lord of the Rings...
