TITLE: Eagle's Eye
This portrait reveals the fierce and proud gaze of a Kyrgyz eagle hunter, his piercing eyes fixed on the camera as he stands tall with his eagle perched on his arm. The eagle, with its piercing eyes and sharp talons, exudes a sense of power and intensity, while the eagle hunter's traditional clothing speak to the cultural context of his profession. Together, the two create a striking and powerful image, conveying the sense of skill and expertise exhibited by the eagle hunter, as well as the sense of connection and partnership between him and his eagle. Captured during a demonstration of a hunt near Issyk-kul in Kyrgyzstan with a Nikon D750 converted to infrared 550nm and converted to black and white.
AUTHOR: Alexandre Brisson (Switzerland)
My name is Alexandre Brisson and I have been passionate about photography ever since I tocuhed my father's camera as a child. I have always loved exploring different styles and techniques, and I have a particular fascination with infrared and black and white photography.
Over the years, I have developed a deep love for capturing wildlife in all its beauty and majesty. I have traveled to many different countries around the world to see animals and landscapes in their natural habitats, and I have always tried to capture the essence of these places and creatures through my photographs.
I am constantly striving to improve my skills and to push the boundaries of my creativity, and I am always seeking out new and exciting subjects to photograph. Whether I am capturing the majesty of a mountain range, the grace of a bird in flight, or the wonder of a landscape, I am always looking for ways to tell a story and to capture the beauty and emotion of the world around me.
I hope that my photographs will inspire others to see the world in a new and beautiful way, and I am excited to share my work with others through this photography contest.
