TITLE: Water Birds

While visiting the Iguazu Falls in the Iguazu National Park, Brazil, I noticed many birds flying around the waterfalls. I waited for the right moment to be able to portray them and also to show at the same time the smallness and grace of birds flying in contrast to the grandeur of the immense waterfalls.

I was born in Rio de Janeiro, in 1964. I am an ophthalmologist by profession and photographer by passion. My relationship with photography started around the age of 15, with my father's Olympus OM-1 and has not stopped since. After a brief relationship with pet photography, which I still love, I discovered that landscape and nature photography are my niche, from the macro world of landscapes to the micro world of plants, trying to relate them to panoramic photography, which is the closest way our eyes see the world. Today, I pay special attention to the forms and textures and how the light influences them, which is leading me to new experiments and interpretations.
