Wildlife Photography: Technology Roundup With Nat Geo's Finest - Nick Nichols

The challenge for a National Geographic photographer isn’t simply to take a picture of a particular animal. It’s to take a different picture of a particular animal. Mike “Nick” Nichols has done this for decades, and on his latest assignment developed a drone helicopter, a remote control car, and a specialized open-air van to help him get closer than ever to lions. He tells Boyd that he was once so close that a bored adolescent lion stole a strobe light from his foot and promptly destroyed it. He also discusses launching his life’s body of work in an app designed for iPads.
