I am a Toronto area photographer with a special
interest in tropical fauna. I have studied microbiology, biochemistry,
photography and for 7 years worked for a small Biotech company. Currently, I
am back at university pursuing a career in Public Health.
There are 3 words that mean the most to me: nature, photography and travel.
As long as I can remember I have always had a camera in my hand and have loved
spending time in the wild. It was only a matter of time before these two
passions united and I started capturing with my camera the beauty of all
things in nature. I am especially drawn to the tiniest of things, perhaps
because of the mystery associated with what we normally do not see.
I stepped into a rainforest for the first time while still at university. It
was in 1999, Australia. I was amazed by its mystery, beauty, colours, sounds
and the variety of wildlife. It was there that I saw my first parrot,
colourful frog and large, oddly shaped insect. I have found my purpose, my
true passion and ambition: to travel to and photograph the rainforests of the
world.
"My
favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been.”
Diane Arbus
“There is a
pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in
its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.”
George
