Ep 51: Jayaprakash Bojan – Up close with an Orangutang and his maker

Jayaprakash Bojan (JP)’s photo of a giant male orangutang peeping at him from behind a tree in a Borneo river won him National Geographic’s Nature Photographer of the Year in 2017. The image was seen by over 3.5 million people, propelling both him and the plight of Red Apes into the spotlight. In this conversation with A Rocha co founder Peter Harris and Jo Swinney, JP talks publicly for the first time about his burgeoning faith in the Creator of All, the values that underpin his approach to nature photography and where his career has gone after everything changed with the National Geographic award.

JP lives in Singapore with his wife and their child. You can find him and see some of his incredible photography and film work on social media: Instagram - @Jayaprakash_bojan, Facebook – Jayaprakash Bojan photography, LinkedIn – Jayaprakash Bojan
