About the artist

Three decades behind the lens

Ignacio Palacios is an award-winning travel, landscape and wildlife photographer whose career spans more than thirty years and over ninety countries.

From the salt flats of Bolivia and the autumn peaks of Patagonia to the wildlife of Africa and the frozen light of the far north, his work is a lifelong pursuit of the world's wild and beautiful places, captured with patience and a painterly eye for colour and form.

His photography has been recognised in many of the world's most respected awards, including Travel Photographer of the Year, the International Landscape Photographer of the Year, and the International Aerial Photograph of the Year. Every print offered here is produced to archival, gallery standard and signed by the artist.
