Borneo Wildlife Photo Expedition

In Borneo’s remote rainforests, “Ambassador of Orangutans” Bedley Asun shares a life shaped by the jungle—where wild orangutans, hornbills and pygmy elephants appear from the canopy, and each day brings a new encounter in one of Earth’s richest ecosystems.

The difference between a near miss and a wall-worthy wildlife photo often comes down to a single second. Photo Expedition Leader Aditya Panda explains how India's finest guides read animal behavior to anticipate action before it unfolds, using his own images of tigers, leopards, sloth bears and more. Learn to recognize the subtle body-language cues that precede a pounce, a charge or even a yawn; discover how alarm calls from deer and langurs can reveal a predator's presence; and pick up the camera settings and field techniques that help photographers stay ready when the moment arrives.
