Each year, we ask our travelers to submit their favorite photos from their journeys with us for a chance to be featured in our annual calendar. This year, as always, we had many great submissions, and it was a challenge to narrow it down. We're excited to share the finished result! Thank you to everyone who submitted their photos and shared their stories with us. This year's cover is a striking shot of a tarsier in Borneo. Check back on our blog to see each Photo of the Month, or click here to view the full calendar.
Borneo is an experience like no other. Having filmed and photographed in Costa Rica, Rwanda, and Madagascar, I can tell you the Bornean rainforest is humbling. The massive trees that create the canopy are home to specialized mammals, birds, and reptiles. One animal I was looking forward to photographing (with no expectations of seeing it) is the tarsier, a nocturnal primate with giant amber eyes and little primate hands and feet. On one of our first night walks in Danum Valley, our guide said “Stop!! Look!! A tarsier!” He was perfectly positioned to give us shots of a lifetime! That night I told our guide to come get us when he spots another tarsier...he just laughed at me..
