loveEARTH: Doug Allan & Sue Flood Fine Art Photography (April 23, 2009 - May 30, 2009)

Meet Planet Earth, Disney Earth Movie photographers at Earth Day Week Special Event at Rosenbaum Contemporary in Boca Raton.

Married filmmakers from Disney’s “Earth” feature movie being released Earth Day, April 22, headed state-side with their hilarious behind-the-scenes stories and videos, and a fine art gallery show at Rosenbaum Contemporary in Boca Raton April 23 featuring their rare images from the ends of the earth.

The biologists/filmmaking couple who shot most of the video for Disney's Earth and key portions of Blue Planet and Planet Earth series, Doug Allan and Sue Flood, will be in New York and Florida Earth Day week for interviews and their gallery show and talk. (They live in the UK.) They will also show their work and speak at a special SOLD OUT evening event at MetroZoo in Miami at 7:30pm April 25th.

Walt Disney Studios’ release of Earth is the first feature-length nature documentary from its new production platform, Disneynature.

Sue and Doug travel the world doing speaking engagements between wildlife shoots and are met with gasps at their photography, belly-laughs at their stories and a standing ovation when they take their bow.

They have SPECTACULAR still photos to show from their personal collection and hilarious behind-the-scenes stories and videos of their life as married wildlife filmmakers who risk their lives to bring back breathtaking video of nature’s remote wonders. (How and where Doug proposed to Sue is hilarious. And when she was accidentally struck by a whale and dropped her camera – he had to choose between wife or camera. He chose…)

Doug has appeared on Oprah and spoken before the United Nations and Sue travels around the globe doing speeches and showing her remarkable still photography and fun behind-the-scenes videos. She just returned from 3 months in Antarctica and he's in the Red Sea chasing whales this week.

NBC's Kerry Sanders and producer/writer Nery Ynclan met Sue on their trip to the North Pole for the Today Show and Nightly News in 2007. Sue was a primary biologist and speaker on the trip. Taken with her amazing still photography Nery Ynclan introduced Sue and Doug’s work to gallery owner Howard Rosenbaum this year and he jumped at the chance to put on a fine art photography show.

“There were so many images that I wanted to put in my own home, I knew we had something very special here,” said Rosenbaum. “There are a couple of images so incredible they look like photo-shop, fortunately there were witnesses. To have these world-class photographers here the week of their movie premiere in Palm Beach is an honor and I can’t wait to hear and see their behind-the-scenes stories and videos.”

Fine Art Photography in varying sizes and medium, along with select posters, will be available at the Rosenbaum Contemporary and on-line. Part of the proceeds of the show and poster sales will benefit the Zoological Society of South Florida Trust Fund.
