Hawfinch Takes a Bath
So when you’re hiding near water, you can capture special behaviour.
This Hawfinch took a bath when I was in a blind at a pond.
I am photographing since the age of eight and I bought my first SLR at twelve and started exploring nature.
At first birds had my special interest and later on landscapes and mammals too.
Particularly light at sunrise and sunset are my favorite.
And I like to capture special behaviour of animals in special light.
During my travels round the world I visited the tropical Amazon rainforest, as well as the arctic. Especially the arctic, spring, fall and winter are my favorite.
