Wildlife photographers Bill and Jean Dupre have an exhibition of animal pictures from all over the world in Malmesbury Town Hall.

The pictures, which include polar bears and leopards, were taken in South Africa, America, Canada and Finland.

The couple, from Hullavington, have been joined by fellow villager and portrait photographer Anna Durrant, the in-house photographer for Bowood Estate.

On Friday the photographers hosted an open evening for invited guests to see the exhibition, which runs until Saturday.

Mr Dupre said he and his wife had opened up another line of work – taking tourists with them on their expeditions.

He said that a couple had seen photographs of a grizzly bear and said how they would love to see one themselves.

They now take up to four paying guests with them on their expeditions.
