Paul Nicklen's narrative on "Matriarch's March": "Traveling tail to trunk across the dry lakebeds toward Amboseli, a line of elephants crowded with mothers, aunts, sisters, and several young calves trail after their beloved matriarch. Spring in Kenya is marked by the start of the long rains, which feed into the rivers and valleys until they are flush with green once more. After years of sporadic, record-breaking drought, however, it will be some time before the lakes refill, if they fill at all. In order to cope with the unpredictable weather patterns, elephants must rely on the wisdom of the eldest female. Like her mother and grandmother before her, she knows exactly where to find water, food, and safety even in times of scarcity." -Paul Nicklen Biography: Paul Nicklen (Canadian) is a visual artist and marine biologist who has documented both the beauty and the plight of our planet for over 20 years. Paul’s photography informs and connects by creating an emotional bond with wild subjects in extreme conditions. After a 20-year career of photographing for journalistic publications like National Geographic, Paul’s perpetuating dream is to revisit his archives for the true artistic gems and release them to the world. His ongoing journey is to continue photographing intimate, evocative, powerful subject matter to create a thought-provoking body of work. Paul hopes his viewers look into the eyes of the animals in his photographs and fall in love with their vulnerability. In addition to being one of the world’s most renowned nature photographers, Paul is a well-known speaker, TED Talks participant, author, and National Geographic Fellow. In the past two decades, Paul has collaborated with scientists, filmmakers, conservationists, and explorers to create awareness and inspire action for global issues such as climate change. Paul has garnered more than 30 of the highest awards given to any photographer in his field, earning a global following of celebrities, conservationists, and fans.
