Personal Approaches to Wildlife Photography
My path into nature photography came about quite naturally for me because even as a child, I was fascinated by animals and their different habitats, the interaction of different species within an ecosystem, and the peculiarities and characteristics of certain animal species. Photography is a wonderful way for me to present my own individual view of nature and to immortalize in a photo what inspires me about an animal or a particular situation. I enjoy bringing people closer to something that they might otherwise miss or not even get to know or see. An idea for a picture often comes about through a chance encounter and is often only very brief. And when I reflect on it, I often have the desire to create a picture of it.
