'Only who spots the beauty of nature is prepared to protect it'
About us
Nature photography affords an attentive sight, sometimes much patience and in other moments a fast reaction.
With creativity, the right light and growing experience regarding perspective and camera settings good pictures originate.
First of all, one has to spot the subject. What can be discovered is not always predictable despite good knowledge about distribution and behavior of a species.
Therefore, the delight to get a rare species in front of the camera is even greater.
Indeed, we do not only strive to get a picture as perfect as possible, but also to document nature and make it accessible to others.
If people discover the beauty of nature by our pictures and help to protect it, we have effected our purpose.
Almost all of our pictures are taken outdoors. Pictures from animal parks and botanical gardens are indicated.
