About The Artwork

The morning started out cold and foggy, as it often does this time of year inside the Ngorongoro Crater. There is only one winding road in and one winding road out. On our descent down inside, we could smell the kill before we spotted the lions cleaning what was left. One massive male lion with blood covering most of his face reluctantly shared with the pride before wandering off for an early morning nap with a full belly. For a few moments, I scrambled to find a decent composition of this savage, but there was so much vegetation between him and my lens. His direction took him away from my position. I settled for a few side profile shots but not the coveted straight-on eye contact image I was hoping for. Just seconds later, my colleague and friend Steven Ngowi, founder of Ndifo Safari spotted a second huge male who had decided to join the rest of the pride. He snuck up behind us and took in the whole scene before moving directly at me. Click, I focused my lens perfectly on his eyes as one of the world’s top predators stared me down, creating the image you see before you. “Ngoro Stare”.

After 20 years behind the lens, Derek Nielsen’s journey to capture, share—and ultimately, help preserve—the fragile beauty of our planet has taken him to more than two dozen countries and every continent. His stunning photographs don’t just inspire, they connect—linking audiences and resources all over the world to wildlife, landscapes, and people in desperate need of assistance, from Rwanda’s endangered silverback gorillas to the overfished waters of Antarctica. First moved to contribute to global conservation efforts while photographing the ominous splendor of Iceland’s Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon, a haunting manifestation of climate change, Derek provides a portion of the proceeds from each of his sustainably framed and matted works to on-the-ground, local conservation efforts, including The Conservation Alliance and Borneo’s The Borneo Project. A native of Chicago, Derek carries a friendly midwest smile eager for a conversation with strangers. If you see him in the field or out at events don’t hesitate to ask any questions or just start a conversation about wildlife, conservation, and of course photography.
