Here come the snappers | Wildlife Photographer of the Year

Thomas P Peschak’s Image

Thomas’ sublime portfolio is a beautiful escape into the remote worlds of the Seychelles. His collection inspires an appreciation of the archipelago’s 115 islands and their flora and fauna – including the bohar snapper, one of the Aldabra Atoll’s top predators.

Working with a group of scientists who were deploying BRUV (Baited Remote Underwater Video) systems, Thomas had to cling to the camera’s steel cables to get this compelling split-level shot. Using one hand to take pictures, the other attempted to repel the bold and inquisitive snappers – and their incredibly sharp teeth.
