Admit it: your travel photos consist mainly of you flashing your tits / wang on top of the Eiffel Tower, pulling a beer bong in Croatia and taking shroom-driven selfies in an Amsterdam park.
If you’re New Zealand photographer Allan Dixon, your camera roll looks more like you broke into a zoo to get the world’s best photos of you and a million furry companions.
Seriously, the dude has travelled everyone from ‘Straya to Ireland to sharing the limelight with quokkas, kangaroos, lambs, cats, llamas, horsies – even the rats of the sky, seagulls.
The photos look super-natural, but Dixon says there’s a fine art to the animal-selfie, which can take “anywhere between five minutes to three hours of being in the animal’s presence” to really nail.
A piece of advice for all ya’ll who want to follow his lead:
“They should be very careful as to not upset or provoke the animal when they’re trying to take the photo. Gain the animal’s trust in a calm relaxed manner and the results will be golden. Make sure it’s not a crocodile.”
You heard the man.
