Wildlife Cameraman | Operation Iceberg
Have you ever been watching one of the BBC’s groundbreaking wildlife documentaries and thought “How did he get that shot?!” – well now you can find out the incredible stories behind the images in Doug Allan’s debut book.
Braving the elements and depths of the Antarctic and Arctic Oceans, Doug has produced a fascinating 240 page book filled with exceptional photographs and secrets of life behind the lens, giving you a peek into the often hostile yet inspiring world of a wildlife cameraman.
This book is so much more than a collection of superb images. Doug started life as a research diver in 1976 at Signy Island, Antarctica. Now with 35 years of experience in the Antarctic and Arctic, the stories that accompany every picture in this book tell of Doug’s astonishing adventures and encounters, his insights and emotions, his deep understanding of the biology of the animals and the psychology of film-makers.

A collection of my pictures from encounters and experiences on shoots worldwide. No reasons in particular for the shots though there's something quietly wonderful about how I can remember the circumstances of every single one.
From the Blue Planet, Emperor Penguins face up to their enemy, the Leopard Seal
Amazing behaviour! Killer Whales take seals off ice floes in the Antarctic with remarkably co-ordinated behaviour.
A group of Beluga Whales are surfacing for air in a gap in the frozen ocean. They are weak with starvation and attractive prey for a passing Polar Bear.
I'm doing some Scottish venues towards the end of November. Here's the information, please contact the venues for tickets. Apologies to the those of you up north who've written to say they wish I was coming to more places, but just like when I'm filming beasties, I can only be in one place at one time and this is how it's panned out this year. But down the line, I'll do other theatres. That goes for Ireland too!
