Three award-winning wildlife photographers are in London this November to give a presentation of their images and discuss how they study predators in and around the extraordinary, yet fragile Masai Mara Reserve in Kenya. The event on 12 November 2007 has been arranged by the wildlife conservation charity Friends of Conservation and all money raised will go to projects in the Mara region. Jonathan Scott and Angie Scott who have both been acclaimed as wildlife photographers of the year will use their stunning photographs to illustrate the changing world of the Maasai people and the impact this is having on the Mara and its wildlife. Both photographers have also worked closely with TV programmes such as the popular BBC ‘Big Cat Diary’ series – Jonathan as a presenter and Angie as a stills photographer and game spotter. Visitors will also be treated to pictures taken by Paul Goldstein, award-winning wildlife photographer, conservationist, author and presenter. Paul, a Daily Telegraph travel photographer of the year and ‘Wanderlust’ magazine wildlife photographer of the year, also leads photographic groups for exodus travels in the Mara. The event takes place on Monday 12 November 2007 and is sponsored by Canon and supported by Exodus and Kenya Airways. The talk begins at 7 pm in the Great Hall, Sherfield Building, Imperial College, Exhibition Rd, London SW7 2AZ. Tickets are £ 18.00 including a pre-talk drinks reception or £15.00 for the talk only (£15.00/£ 12.00 for students) and can be booked on www.foc-uk.com/events, by calling 0207 603 5024, or emailing focevents@aol.com
