Limited permits for the animal have been issued and once again i have managed to bag one(it pays to have friends in the right places).I am both excited and apprehensive.Excited at seeing the animal in the wild,the trip to its habitat and the chance to shoot it again.Apprehensive because i am a few years older than my last shoot,have smoked many more cigarettes since then and am not sure that i will be able to really rough it out as i did the last time.However this time i've been allocated a different area which is less ardous to climb with a very good chance of spotting the animal from the road.Also i could go up the mountain on Yak back(sounds nice)as such a facility does exist in this area.
So come Dec. and i'm gone for a really exciting shoot.
