"There are exactly two black rhinos left in the world, the very last of their kind. In this deeply poignant tribute, photographer Joachim Schmeisser presents these rhinos as well as other wild animals in the Amboseli National Park in Kenya, where Maasai tribespeople ensure that nobody endangers them. With his breath-taking black-and-white images, Schmeisser brings us up close to these extraordinary and endangered creatures, creating a powerful document of nature's splendour and fragility.

SELLING POINTS: .

From the photographer behind Elephants in Heaven. .

Remarkable, intimate pictures that bring us up close to Africa's ""Big Five."" .

A tribute and a warning cry, showing some of the most endangered animals on earth.

160 b/w photographs"

Reviews for Last of Their Kind

It's not a typical choice to photograph wildlife in monochrome, but here, the imagery being in black and white brings an extra poignancy and dignity to these stunning animal portraits. - Amateur Photographer Both an homage and a final warning highlighting some of the treasures we stand to lose forever, Last of Their Kind is a powerful record of nature's splendour and fragility. - Outdoor Photography
