Craig Potton is New Zealand's best known landscape photographer and an ardent conservationist. In 2013, he received the Insignia of a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for his services to photography and conservation over the past 35 years. 

In this episode Andy sits down with Craig in person to talk about how Craig got started in photography and the merging of art, science, and politics to inspire change that can help save our planet. Craig talks about the importance of engaging your heart in your art, the biggest conservation issues of our time, and his philosophy of happiness, which, unsurprisingly, is deeply connected with nature.
