This will be a highly collectable, sell-out issue of Nikon Owner magazine

(1888PressRelease) July 21, 2010 - London - In Issue 32, the next unique issue of Nikon Owner magazine, Editor Gray Levett interviews two of the most well-respected photographers in their fields: Jim Brandenburg and Mike Maloney OBE.

In April of this year, Jim Brandenburg was awarded the prestigious distinction of having his work included in the Top Forty Nature Photographs in the History of Photography by iLCP, the international League of Conservation Photographers.

Jim Brandenburg travelled the globe as a photographer with National Geographic magazine for over three decades. His career resulted in numerous magazine stories, several television features and many National Geographic books. He has been published in a multitude of national and international publications including the New York Times, LIFE, TIME, Audubon, Smithsonian, Natural History, GEO, Modern Maturity, BBC Wildlife, Outdoor Photographer, National Wildlife, and Outside.

He has received a multitude of prestigious national and international honours for his work, including having been named twice by The National Press Photographers Association as Magazine Photographer of the Year for his work with National Geographic magazine, and as Kodak Wildlife Photographer of the Year by BBC Wildlife Magazine and the Natural History Museum, London. In addition, he was the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award by the North American Nature Photographers Association.

Mike Maloney is Britain's most highly decorated press-photographer with 105 major prizes to his name. Voted three times Press Photographer of the Year, he has had numerous royal tours to his credit, as well as photographing world leaders such as Clinton, Regan, Gorbachev and Yelstin, with invitations to dine at both the White House and the Kremlin. Mike was awarded an honorary Doctor of Arts degree by the University of Lincoln for 'a lifetime's work in photography and his help to young people'. At the ceremony, he was able to read a personal letter of congratulations from The Queen Mother.

In the next issue of Nikon Owner, Mike recalls the pivotal moment which led him to take the road south to London from his humble beginnings at a provincial newspaper in Lincoln. He narrates some of the singular stories from the glittering career that followed, resulting in dozens of awards and an OBE from The Queen.

The interview with Mike Maloney will be followed in subsequent issues by a new series of articles unique to Nikon Owner entitled 'Mike Maloney's World'.
