A Rare Encounter: Celebrating the Fever Tree Leopard’s Sony World Photography Awards Shortlist
Award-winning photographer Peter Delaney shares the story behind his Sony World Photography Awards shortlisted image, "Fever Tree Leopard," and the magical moment it was captured in Lake Nakuru.
I’m thrilled to share that my image, “Fever Tree Leopard,” has been shortlisted for the Sony World Photography Awards 2025! With over 419,000 images submitted globally, this recognition is a dream come true. This image represents a fleeting moment of connection with the wild that I’ll carry with me forever.
To celebrate, I’m offering "Fever Tree Leopard" as an exclusive limited edition fine art print, with only 11 copies available worldwide.
“I’m thrilled to share that my Sony Awards shortlist has been featured on RTÉ, Ireland’s national TV station!

The Prelude: A Lion's Piercing Gaze
Before the leopard, there was the lion. As the sunset faded over Lake Nakuru, a pride rested near a dirt road. A young male rose and locked eyes with my lens—a moment of raw power and connection captured in my image, "The Stare." It was a powerful prelude, but the fever tree forest held a greater surprise.
From Still Image to Living Moment: Watch the tension build as the young lion rises, his intense gaze foreshadowing the magic to come.
The Setting: A Magical Afternoon in the Fever Tree Forest
Lake Nakuru’s Fever Tree Forest is a place of otherworldly beauty. I was on safari with a client, and my goal was to help her feel Africa, not just photograph it. We turned off the engine, listened to the birdsong, and soaked in the tranquillity. We even paused for a coffee break, simply to "be" in the heart of the forest. It was a magical, sensory experience.
“From the Intensity of ‘The Stare’ to the Grace of the Fever Tree Leopard—Experience the Untamed Beauty of Lake Nakuru. Little did I know, the fever tree forest held an even greater surprise in store.”
The Encounter: A Leopard Revealed
As we finished our refreshments, our guide spotted her: a young female leopard, resting on a distant branch. We held our breath. She moved, disappeared into the vegetation, and we repositioned, hoping to predict her path. Our patience was rewarded when she reappeared, climbing onto the massive bough of a towering fever tree. The scene was perfect.
As I moved quietly through the forest, my guide signaled me to stop. There, high on the bough of a towering fever tree, was a female leopard. Her sleek coat glistened in the dappled light filtering through the canopy. She was the epitome of grace—resting, then rising, her movements fluid and unhurried. In that moment, I knew I was witnessing something extraordinary.
The Shot: Capturing a Fleeting Moment
For a while, she rested. Then, as if attuned to my hopes, she stood up. She turned, walked down the trunk, and in a perfect, fleeting moment, she paused, flicked her tail, and glanced back. I pressed the shutter. I had captured the photograph of a lifetime.
The Art: Why Black and White
When editing this image, I knew it had to be black and white. Stripping away colour heightens the contrasts and textures—the intricate bark of the fever tree, the leopard’s sleek coat, and the delicate interplay of light and shadow. The result is a portrait that feels both intimate and timeless, a true celebration of nature’s quiet majesty.
Own a Piece of This Story: The Limited Edition Print
This image is more than a photograph; it’s a story of patience, magic, and a deep connection with the wild. To celebrate this milestone, I’m offering "Fever Tree Leopard" as a limited edition fine art print.
Each of the 11 available prints is:

Elevate Your NYC Space with Safari Wall Art
Is your NYC apartment missing a soul? Learn how bold, black and white safari art can become your statement of resilience, transforming urban grit into untamed elegance.
Your Urban Sanctuary Awaits
Discover the design secret that bridges the gap between Manhattan's skyline and the soul of the African wilderness.
“Urban Giant" | Amboseli Old Tusker
"Command your space with the quiet power of Africa’s giants. This archival print turns living rooms into landscapes."
The Concrete Jungle Meets the Wild
In a city that never sleeps, your home should be your sanctuary. But how do you create a space for calm and power amidst the concrete, noise, and pace?
The answer lies not in more minimalist furniture, but in a bold infusion of the wild. Archival black-and-white safari wall art is the transformative element your NYC apartment is missing. It’s more than decor; it’s a statement of resilience, a portal to adventure, and the key to a truly sophisticated urban oasis.
"The King’s Gaze"
"Rule your concrete kingdom. This lion’s stare is the only crown a NYC apartment needs."
The Power of a Focal Point: Command Your Space with Lion Art
Your living room needs an anchor. A focal point that draws the eye and sets the tone for the entire space. A lion, the true king of the savanna, does exactly that.
A striking lion portrait brings a quiet, unyielding authority to your interior. The monochrome palette ensures it integrates seamlessly with any colour scheme, while the subject’s raw power and direct gaze create a conversation piece that is both elegant and primal. It’s a daily reminder of strength and resilience—qualities every New Yorker understands.
“Rule your concrete kingdom. This lion’s stare is the only crown a NYC apartment needs.”
Tender Moment | Sacred Bond
"In a city that never sleeps, let their quiet intimacy whisper: ‘Here, you belong.’"
The Antidote to Chaos: Find Calm with Elephant Art
NYC is synonymous with chaos. Your home shouldn’t be. Elephant wall art embodies wisdom, memory, and calm. The gentle giants of the savanna bring a profound sense of tranquillity to any room, making them perfect for bedrooms, reading nooks, or your home office.
The textured details of their skin and their soulful, intelligent eyes add depth and a soft, organic element to minimalist spaces, counteracting the hard lines of the city.
“In a city that never sleeps, let their quiet intimacy whisper: ‘Here, you belong.”
Skyward Elegance
"Stretch beyond skyscrapers. A giraffe’s grace meets Manhattan’s skyline in monochrome poetry."
The Illusion of Space: Elevate Perspectives with Giraffe Art
Square footage is a premium, but perception is everything. The towering grace of a giraffe, captured in a vertical portrait, creates a powerful visual trick that draws the eye upward, making low ceilings feel higher and cramped hallways feel grander.
This is biophilic design at its most effective—using nature’s forms to improve our perception of a man-made environment.
“Stretch beyond skyscrapers. A giraffe’s grace meets Manhattan’s skyline in monochrome poetry.”
"Dine Beneath Giants"
"Where loft chic meets wild majesty. This archival Mara landscape turns dinner parties into safari soirees, with a giraffe’s grace presiding over every meal."
Proven Wellness: It's Not Just Decor, It's Design for Wellbeing
This isn't just an aesthetic choice; it's a wellness strategy. Studies in environmental psychology have shown that exposure to nature-inspired art can significantly reduce stress levels.
In your urban environment, where concrete dominates, these prints offer a vital visual escape:
Replace screen glare with a lion's contemplative gaze.
Mask drywall cracks with the intricate textures of elephant skin.
Offset subway grime with the perfect patterns of a zebra's stripes.
This is visual therapy for the city dweller.
From My Lens to Your Living Room: The Peter Delaney Difference
Every print tells a story—not just of the animal, but of the moment it was captured. My work is dedicated to freezing those split seconds of wild soul and raw beauty into timeless, archival artworks.
When you bring a Peter Delaney print into your home, you’re not just buying a photograph; you’re investing in a piece of the wild, a story of resilience, and a legacy of artistic craftsmanship. Each piece is produced to museum-quality standards, ensuring it remains a focal point for generations.

Why Human Art Matters More Than Ever in the Age of AI
In a world flooded with AI images, my photographs tell real stories — of mud, patience, danger, and light. Art made by a man, not a machine.
Why Human Art Matters More Than Ever in the Age of AI
“The Matriarch”
is more than a portrait. It is a quiet reverence for strength, resilience, and the sacred role of guardianship. A striking centrepiece for collectors drawn to minimalist design and the enduring spirit of Africa’s wild giants.
In a world where machines can generate images in seconds, the question every artist is quietly asking is: Does my work still matter?
The answer, without hesitation, is yes.
But only if we lean into what makes us human.
“Camelopard”
is more than a portrait. It’s a meditation—a moment of connection between a creature and the land, and between that land and myself. A timeless echo of solitude, grace, and breath.
Real Art Can’t Be Faked by a Prompt
My photographs are born in silence. In sweat. In stillness. I’ve stood in the African bush for days, covered in dust and sweat, camera in hand, waiting. Listening. Feeling. For the light to fall just right. For an elephant to pause mid-step. For the Breath of the Wild to whisper: now.
That moment can’t be coded. It can’t be rendered. It can’t be hallucinated by an algorithm trained on a billion borrowed images.
And that’s why it matters.
“Stillness in the Wild”
Not just a photograph — a legacy in print. For collectors who value truth, rarity, and soul.
The Value Is in the Story and Provenance
AI will flood the market with flawless, polished, generic content. But perfection is not what touches the human soul.
What collectors will crave — what already holds value — is truth.
Not just a photograph, but a journey:
The mud on my boots
The sting of early morning frost
The roar of a lion, too close for comfort
The long, quiet days without a single shot
That’s what you invest in when you buy my work. Not pixels. Not decoration. But experience, presence, and provenance.
People are buying me — the story, the patience, the lifetime behind the lens — not just the photograph.
Fever Tree Leopard: A Sony World Photography Awards Shortlist
Own a rare, limited edition black-and-white fine art print of a female leopard in the Fever Tree Forest. Only 11 prints available worldwide. Hand-signed and authenticated.
📸 Fever Tree Leopard
Captured in the golden stillness of the fever tree forest of Lake Nakuru, Kenya, this elusive predator draped itself across the limbs just as the light softened. Shortlisted for the Sony World Photography Awards 2025, this moment is the result of patience, instinct, and presence. Watch the moment unfold — filmed quietly, one breath away from the wild.
Soul. Suffering. Truth. Imperfection.
These are not flaws. They are fingerprints. Human ones.
In a world saturated with synthetic imitation, art created by human hands, with all its rawness, struggle, and grace — becomes the gold standard.
Your walls won’t just hold a beautiful image. They will hold the truth.
Eye to Eye: A Moment of Majesty
This fine art print immortalizes the spirit of the wild, bringing the raw beauty and commanding presence of Africa's untamed wilderness into your home.
🦁 Eye to Eye
A male lion, soaked by Mara rain, sitting in the mist and locked eyes with me — a moment of raw presence and silent power. In this rare behind-the-scenes clip, you’ll see the wild as I saw it: unpredictable, haunting, unforgettable.
The Bottom Line
Yes, AI will change the art world. But that’s not a threat — it’s a call to rise.
Real art — the kind made with intent, sacrifice, and soul — becomes rarer. And in that rarity lies its value.
So I keep showing up. Camera in hand. Eyes open. Heart engaged.
And if you're still drawn to what’s real in this fast-changing world — you’ll find it here, in every print I create.
Let’s not run from the future. Let’s create something timeless within it.
Contemplation | Winner Wildlife Photographer of The Year
A gaze lost in thought. In Chimpanzee Dreaming, a great ape reclines on the forest floor, hands gently clasped behind his head, eyes fixed on the canopy above. He is not just resting—he is dreaming, contemplating the world in quiet wonder.
🐵 Contemplation
While creating this intimate portrait of a chimpanzee deep in thought — later named a winner in Wildlife Photographer of the Year — I recorded myself speaking about the experience. It’s not Nat Geo footage, just my iPhone. But it’s real. And the honesty comes through.

Unlock the Secrets of Safari Photography: The Art of Seeing
Black maned Lion
Step into the Wild – Your African Safari Awaits
As I reflect on my journey as a wildlife photographer, especially when I review my images, a few truths emerge. In the beginning, my shots mostly featured either action or close-up portraits. While exciting, they often lacked deeper storytelling. The truth is, editing was still a challenge for me then—just as capturing those photographs had been. But what I've realized is that true wildlife photography goes beyond action and close-ups. It's about *seeing*—and there is no better place to refine that skill than on an African photographic safari.

When you're out in the wild, camera in hand, it's easy to fall into the rhythm of snapping action shots—thanks to advanced autofocus systems—or zooming in for detailed portraits. But as exciting as that can be, where's the art in pointing and shooting? When we take guests on safari, we teach them that great wildlife photography requires more than simply capturing a moment. It demands patience, creativity, and an eye for composition. It’s about crafting an image, not just taking a picture.

Safari Like Never Before – Adventure, Explore, Capture!
Wildlife photography is one of the most challenging forms of photography, and safaris are the perfect setting to hone this skill. On safari, you never know what you’ll encounter—the timing, place, light, and subject are all unpredictable. While action shots near a waterhole can be thrilling, the true magic happens when you’re quiet, observing, and composing an image that tells a story. And that’s what we teach on our safaris.

Mastering Composition on Safari
Every great photograph begins with a solid composition. While guides like the rule of thirds can help, it’s your personal *vision* that will make your images unique and captivating. Safaris are an opportunity to develop this vision—to not just see, but to *really see*.
For instance, one of the composition techniques I love teaching on safari is using negative space. Imagine the vast open plains of Amboseli or Mara, where a lone elephant stands in the distance, framed by endless skies. Negative space allows your subject to breathe, creating a sense of calm and highlighting the majestic beauty of Africa’s wildlife.

We also explore the magic of light and texture. Early morning or late afternoon safaris are ideal for this, as the golden light casts long shadows and enhances the textures of an elephant’s wrinkled skin or the gentle curves of a sand dune. These are moments when we help guests experiment with patterns in the landscape, using clouds, trees, and distant mountains to enhance their compositions.

Seeing Beyond the Obvious
On safari, there’s a temptation to capture the big, dramatic moments—the chase, the kill, the perfect portrait. While those moments are special, true photographers learn to see beyond the obvious. Our goal is to help you refine your ability to anticipate moments, to capture the quiet, intimate interactions—whether it’s a lion cub nestled under its mother in the pouring rain or a zebra foal peeking over its shoulder.

During our safaris, we encourage guests to explore different angles and viewpoints. Whether you're lying low to capture the striking silhouette of cheetahs on a mound in the savannah or aiming high to showcase the grandeur of a marula tree with a leopard gracefully walking along its branches, every shift in perspective reveals a new story. It’s these creative viewpoints that transform a standard shot into one that truly resonates emotionally with your audience.

Creating with Rhythm and Symmetry
Africa is full of patterns, from the stripes of a zebra to the rhythms of an elephant herd walking in unison. On our safaris, we teach you how to use natural symmetry and rhythm to create engaging images. For example, imagine photographing a line of elephants, slowly marching towards you and you wait for that one magical moment where the lead bull extends his ears to create the perfect shot. It’s not just about snapping a shot—it’s about seeing the balance and rhythm in the scene and waiting for the right moment to capture it..

Symmetry, rhythm, and balance aren’t just photographic techniques—they’re ways of telling stories. They help you build a deeper connection with the wildlife you're photographing and with the viewer of your images

The Art of Patience
One of the most valuable lessons we emphasize during our safaris is the importance of patience. The most captivating wildlife photographs often come from waiting—waiting for the perfect light, the right moment, and that unforgettable interaction. Patience allows you to connect deeply with the environment, making space for truly magical encounters.
Take, for example, the story behind my photograph "The Stare." During a recent photo safari in Kenya’s Lake Nakuru, my client and I stumbled upon a lion pride resting by a dirt road. While we initially hoped for the iconic shot of lions perched in a Fever tree, we chose to wait, despite the fading daylight and no guarantees. Hours passed as the lions slept, but just as the sun began to set and raindrops started to fall, a young male lion stirred. He slowly rose, turned, and locked eyes with my lens. It was a brief yet powerful moment—his gaze full of intensity, a fleeting connection that I was fortunate to capture before he rejoined the pride.

Your Vision
Ultimately, what we offer on our safaris with Delaney & Siggesson is not just a chance to photograph wildlife, but a chance to develop your vision as a photographer. The ‘art of seeing’ goes beyond technique—it’s about capturing the emotion of the moment, the spirit of the wild. We help you find that balance between technical precision and artistic expression, ensuring that your photographs tell the story of your unique journey through Africa’s wilderness.
If you want to take your wildlife photography to the next level, join us on safari. Let us guide you through the breathtaking landscapes of Africa, teaching you not just how to photograph its wildlife, but how to “see” it.
Because as one of my favourite songs says, “You don’t need eyes to see…you need vision.”
