The ultimate luxury is space, and Abu is located in a 180 000-hectare (445 000-acre) private concession in the heart of Botswana’s Okavango Delta, one of the world’s most important wetland ecosystems. The area’s diverse habitats, abundant water and plentiful natural vegetation offer an ideal home for a great variety of wildlife but also for the Abu Herd – elephants that have been rescued from exploitative situations or saved from harm, and which we ultimately aim to introduce into the Okavango. Being able to photograph the Abu Herd, getting to know the individuals, one reliases there is something greater than us. And we need to conserve it.
