In the podcast, Mark discusses the stories behind four of his favourite photographs and one he admires by another photographer. He shares insights into the technical challenges of capturing these moments, his philosophy on visual storytelling, and the significance of having his work featured on the cover of the 2023 coffee-table book "Remembering Leopards".
