Capture: Galapagos
A Photographic Expedition of the Galapagos Islands
June 29, 2024
In April 2024, Focus Relief founder Tarik Trad joined a group of 19 adventure travelers on an expedition to the Galapagos Islands, led by Focus Relief advisory board member and award-winning photographer Robert Salisbury Knight.
Trad’s participation in the expedition was made possible by the generous sponsorship from an anonymous family that liked the work being done by Focus Relief – particularly using the proceeds from their Antarctica photos and subsequent coffee table book to help end hunger – and wanted to see that work continue.
Much like Antarctica, the Galapagos Islands are filled with unique wildlife, such as Marine and Land Iguanas, Giant Tortoises, and Blue-footed Boobies, to name a few. It also offers a fascinating history, such as Darwin's theories on evolution, tortoise-plundering pirates, and the work being done today to protect and restore the Islands from the damage done by invasive flora and fauna.
“I was extremely honored to participate in such a remarkable adventure as the Galapagos Islands are much more beautiful and mesmerizing than I ever imagined,” Trad said. “I hope this feeling comes through in our gallery of photos.”

PHOTOS
Below you will find a link to a select few of the limited-edition photos taken in the Galapagos Islands available for purchase. Come back often as we’ll be adding more one-of-a-kind photos from this expedition. As always, all profits go to community food bank programs to alleviate hunger and food insecurity in the U.S.
As a reminder, in order to retain the value of your investment, Focus Relief Photography for Charity maintains a strict limit (25) on the maximum number of each fine art photograph sold. Once the number of 25 gallery photos (larger than 8”x10”) sold has been reached, that's it. With the exception of books and marketing materials, that image will no longer become available to anyone. Ever.
