This is the extended edition of Kris Abel’s interview with photojournalist Emily Garthwaite.
Her photo of a chained Asian elephant was a finalist in last year’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year and she continues to speak about opportunities to use the annual competition to put a spotlight on important issues and to attract more women into photography.
