Few people are fortunate enough to go on a trip to a place that can bring drastic change in their life. I don’t know the names of such people but surely I know the name of a place where one can get close encounters with the abundant nature.

The lush green Amazon is the world’s largest river basin that contains the most bountiful rain-forest on the planet. Including macaws, toucans, tyrant flycatchers, capybaras, tapir, sloths, squirrel monkeys, red howler monkeys, jaguars, caimans, anacondas, tarantulas, leaf-cutter ants, scarlet ibis and black skimmers, the Amazon rain-forest is home to a bewildering array of wildlife.

Don’t think the list gets over here, Amazon is such a large rain-forest and has such profusion of wildlife that it might get difficult for you to explore it and if you’re able to then there is a possibility that you won’t see the same sights twice. I’ll suggest you to take your camera along so that you are able to capture the cherishing moments.

Amazon rainforest is the world’s most beautiful and unspoiled places. It is dense, rich, tropical and brimming with life. It is host to some of the most remarkable and fascinating wildlife on earth. With about thousand species of fish and birds including hundreds of hummingbirds, about sixty reptile species one can easily make out the astounding biodiversity of the place.

Wouldn’t you call Nick Gordon fortunate enough to spend ten years of his life get close encounters with the abundant nature of Amazon rainforest? He came up with the astonishing series of magical images. ‘A photographer’s incredible journey’ will be published next month by Evans Mitchell Books at £25. Here, in the picture gallery below I’m putting few pictures of the exciting species and I’m sure these will help you have the idea of Amazon’s biological richness.
