“Photography for me is like breathing, nature is where I feel most comfortable. Each photo is the result of long planning and hard work that often lasts years. A lot of things can be planned: the perspective, background, and lights. However, I have no intention what will appear in front of me and when -I depend entirely on the weather and the whims of the animals, and every day, every minute, something new happens.”
