Spending time on the Steppe was incredible… I fell in love with the wildlife, the people and the conditions. I’m not gonna lie I’m in that horrible blue period now the trip is over, I miss the people I met, the laughs we had the incredible excitement of the adventure. I daydream of being back out in the mountains or on the Steppe again

Perdu dans l'immensité de la steppe de l'Est de la Mongolie, je viens de réaliser un rêve vieux de 25 ans. Face à moi une maman Manuul (nom mongol du chat de Pallas) est lovée dans une anfractuosité du monticule de roches, avec ses trois chatons.

After loosing the sight of 3 leopards I started to look into caves. I can’t describe how I felt when l was eying a snowleopard from 15 meters slowly I raised my camera and got this shot with 1/30 f4 iso 3200 at 600mm thank god for Nikon stabilisation. This was super short encounter the day after we photographed the leopards coming out of the cave relaxing in the sun from a respectable distance. This moment will stay with me until I die.

Had an amazing time on this tour of Mongolia led by David and Wild Lens Nature Tours. The scenery, wildlife and company were all exceptional and without doubt has been one of the highlights of my photography journey. On such a remote tour it’s vital that the logistics and lodgings are up to scratch and everything worked perfectly. More importantly, the wildlife photographic opportunities exceeded my expectations and delivered some once in a lifetime experiences both in the Altai Mountains and the Gobi Desert. It was a tour I will never forget and would thoroughly recommend.

Iceland & Mongolia expeditions (2023, 2024)
I was fortunate enough to visit Iceland to photograph the Arctic Fox with Wild Lens Nature Tours, i had the best experience with them that I had to join them again to Mongolia to photograph the Snow Leopards and the Pallas Cats.
It’s not just about the incredible logistics that i had in both trips (which was amazingly more than I expected), it’s also about how nice David is .. without doubt David is one of the most humble person I have ever met in my life. He cares for everyone and every detail in the trip, he always smiles and makes sure that everyone in comfortable and happy.
David helped me a lot in both trips, he doubled checked everything with me before each trip just to make sure i have the right tools, clothes and camera gear for the trip.
I came back home with lots of incredible shots, lots of great memories and new friends.
I would definitely recommend everyone to join David and Wild Lens Nature Tours for any of their very well tailored trips for nature photographers.
