“When I heard that a black leopard had been seen up at Laikipia Wilderness Camp in Kenya my ears pricked up and I contacted the owners, Steve and Annabelle Carey, to find out more. The photographer explained that one of the hardest parts was to decide where to place the camera. The technique also allows me to set up studio-like lighting in order to capture striking images of animals at night.” I leave these cameras on game paths for days or even weeks at a time in order to photograph elusive animals.

“Each trap is made up of a Camtraptions motion sensor, which wirelessly triggers a high-quality DSLR or mirrorless camera and two or three flashes. In an interview with Bored Panda, Burrard-Lucas explained that the images were captured at Laikipia Wilderness Camp in Kenya using Camtraptions camera traps.

In order to achieve this, he had to set up some camera traps and wait for the creature to come closer.
