Many wildlife photographers get so caught up chasing the perfect shot that they miss the very emotion that drew them to nature in the first place.
In this episode, Gerry explores the psychology of awe - that profound feeling of being dwarfed by something magnificent - and how the technical pursuit of photography can actually block this transformative experience.
From the pressure of social media validation to the "Walter Mitty moment" of choosing presence over documentation, Gerry examines when putting the camera down might capture something far more valuable than any photograph ever could.
