Wildlife: Honorable Mention 2024 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
I've been waiting for this first meeting for a long time and it's finally here, it happened! I always wondered under what circumstances we would meet, whether I would be ready, whether the settings would be OK, whether my hand would tremble, whether it would be a meadow, a forest path, whether I would see him while driving a car, whether I would panic. I met him today, sitting in a canal in a pink diver's wetsuit, waiting for deer at 5am. The whole thing lasted a few seconds, but they were the most wonderful seconds in my photographic life that I don't really remember. My mind went blank, but everything went automatically. Everything worked - direction, lens setting, light, camera settings, frame, distance, wind, delicate fog and him. An amazing meeting that I had been waiting for for a very, very long time. I can confidently mark off one of my photographic dreams.
AUTHOR
Hello, I am a semi-amateur nature photographer. For 3 years I have been translating my hobby into something more than just photography. I try to capture situations, colors, animal reactions in a different way than before.
