As a photographer you get to work in some unusual places… and for some of these, a head for heights is essential.  And so it was that I found myself suspended 60 feet up in the air capturing visitors whizzing through a rainforest canopy environment.  I was shooting some new marketing images for Jungle Surfing Canopy Tours… they run an award-winning zip line tour in the Daintree.  Through a series of low-impact treetop platforms and cables,  jungle surfers experience a unique and exhilarating view of the World Heritage listed rainforest.  Certainly something a little different and challenging shooting up in the rainforest heights.
