Biography
Since I was a boy I was hooked by the nature. My childhood was always
influenced / formed by the local surrounded European nature. Later during my
time at college and university I explored many otherwise eco-systems
throughout the world (South-America, Asia and Australia). Also in that time
my attention shifted from the subject botanic to zoology. I started
photographing the nature from the time I studied Biology at the University.
I'm interested in all wildlife instead of photographing only the avian fauna
like many full-time professional photographers. For me it isn't so essential
to get perfect photos of species even if they are rare or threatened.
My greatest picture is one with a biological bastard (hybrid) of two
different species of sapsuckers / woodpeckers (Red-naped Sapsucker and
Red-breasted Sapsucker). In addition I truly enjoy to take pictures of
landscapes and flora by traveling through foreign countries especially
North-America. It isn't in my intention to create photos for business or
publishing. In addition I actually want to avoid the pressure for sale those
photos.
Unfortunately as a college-teacher for Geography and Biology I'm
exclusively able to travel within the public school vacations but I must
admit the periods of free time are fairly adequate. After I graduated from
the University of Hamburg with a Master degree in biology-assessment /
valuation I moved to a awesome ecosystem (Lueneburger Heath) located in the
southern suburban area of Hamburg. Although I live in a very exciting
photographing area I prefer to explorer and photograph the ecology of
North-America. The reason for my preferences is the breathless nature with a
blend of various ecosystems on this continent. Furthermore many territories
are primeval and that means those areas were unaffected under the pressure
of humanity for the last centuries. After twenty years of traveling
through North-America I will slowly close this segment and set up my focus to
Australia from 2020.
My portfolio contains exclusively a tiny impression of over ten thousands of
photos. These photos should raises awareness of the natural beauty and
variety. Please
feel free to contact me for comments. Any
criticism are
sincerely appreciated! |
