Never steal an African wild dog's dinner. At least if you don't want to get bitten on the backside. We have just published a new Tanzania book (418 pages) - free download link: itunes.apple.com/us/book/id1… Includes 3 wild dog hunts from our 2018 travels in the Serengeti.
Limbering up for a little humpback yoga. 40 tonnes of an impressive megafauna stretch ahead of the long southern trek to the Antarctic feeding grounds. Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia.
I know it's clichéd, silly and sentimental but eye contact like this makes all the time spent on the water more than worthwhile. Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia. Pam Osborn image.
Take a golden sunset, slowly mix with a breathless glass off and add a humpback whale. Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia. Pam Osborn image.
Our hearts went out to this game little subadult humpback. Half its fluke had been severed - possibly an entanglement injury. It's a long swim ahead to the feeding grounds in Antarctic waters. Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia. Pam Osborn image.
The light was fading fast in Exmouth Gulf WA in October 2008. It was a glass off and humpback mother, neonate calf and escort were relaxing in shallow water. The escort was flukes up singing his heart out Still images Pam Osborn. More images, see wayneosborn.com.au/our-books…
Pam was pleased to make the shortlist of the 2018 Australian Geographic Nature Photographer of the Year with this pink anemone fish.#naturephotographer @southaustralianmuseum @australiangeographic More images at wayneosborn.com.au/our-books…
Pam's photographic book on the Wakatobi's House Reef is now available for a free download on iTunes. The result of 8 trips and 1000+ hours freediving on the reef showcases the rich biodiversity of this compelling destination. itunes.apple.com/us/book/wak…
We have updated our free iBook Reef Fish with 194 new images and 47 new species. Our latest and 7th trip to Wakatobi (Coral Triangle) yielded 47 new species in 47 dives - testament to the region's biodiversity. Here's the link to the iBook and PDF versions wayneosborn.com.au/our-books…

Our new iBook Orcas and Ice is a result of a short dash into northern Norway. Exquisitely, our arrival heralded the season’s first polar night where the sun does not climb above the horizon at 70 degrees north. Here's the link for a free download: itunes.apple.com/us/book/orc…
After our little run chasing orcas in the arctic, we added an orca section to our whales website. Here's the link wayneosborn.com.au/orcas.htm… We have also included a few fjord scenics and some pulsing Northern Lights
The supreme confidence of an apex predator at 70 degrees north (Skjervoy, Norway). The herring fleet had gathered and orcas were opportunistically partaking of the piscatorial harvest.
As the snow falls and the herring fleet gathers, opportunist orcas arrive to partake of the piscatorial harvest. 70 degrees north inside the Arctic Circle, Norway.
Northern lights at 70 degrees north at Skjevoy, Norway. Above the frigid waters of the fjords where orca and humpback thrive, the luminous green lights glow.
Arctic orca hunting fun. Pam Osborn centre. 70 degrees north, 350 km into the Arctic Circle, Skjervoy, Norway. #whalesunderwater
