Fotography Friday has come around again, and joining Grant and Ewen Bell this time is Conservation, Science & Nature media creator, Nicolas Rakotopare, who is based in the northern Australian state of Queensland. His work focuses on documenting science and nature, bringing stories of science, conservation and nature to a general audience through all the channels available today.
Nicolas has a degree in Ecology and Conservation Biology and grew up in Madagascar.
He has been based in Australia for over a decade and was the science communication and media specialist for the Threatened Species Recovery Hub (before it ceased to be!) and also works on other projects for NGOs, magazines, research institutions as well as eco-tourism content creation.
Here is the list of the gear that Nicolas usually carries in the field;
