Birds touches my heart.
I love the magic of photography to celebrate their beauty.
Since I spent a lot of time with my birds I see their differnet characters. One is curious another is totally annoying.
I feel bad when I see birds in small cages.
I try to find a balnce betwenn freedom and protection in my outdoor aviary, it`s like a mirrow of my own life.
Birds of paradise used to be called angels, singing in God`s garden.
The paradise door is just crack open, there are still around 10.000 birds species worldwide.
But the door is closing. Almost silently.To quiet to be heard worldwide.
I have been a freelense photographer for over 25 years.
Photography has given me a good life, valuable encounters with people and places that I would never have known without this profession.
