I've been to location shoots in Mexico before, and everyone ends up getting sick.

I wanted to shoot straight, mainstream, somehow off-beat. Not only realistic West, which is quite unfamiliar to the world's population - even to a lot of Americans.

It's fascinating to go somewhere where you're away from everything. There are no houses, no buildings, no roads, no people. And for a little less extreme hunting, any place in the West - Colorado, Utah, Montana - that's just beautiful country.

We also shot at a location that was an Aboriginal sacred ground for the shots coming up the cliff.

Well, the first and only time I went hunting, I shot a deer, and it mortified me. I just couldn't do it again. But I know a lot about guns, so I go to the gun range and stuff like that with friends sometimes.

All my life I have lived and behaved very much like the sandpiper - just running down the edges of different countries and continents, 'looking for something'.

Fencing and shooting kind of came naturally. From the start, I knew that I had it in me.

I am a very good shot. I have hunted for every kind of animal. But I would never kill an animal during mating season.

I come from a family of fishermen. Fishing is very important to us. We don't hunt. We're not gun folk.

The Congo was the most difficult shoot of my life but was also maybe the greatest adventure of my life.
