An naturalist’s photoblog
“Opportunities are like sunrises
- if you wait too long, you miss them.” William Arthur Ward
I suppose that’s true of sunsets too. It is certainly true of nature photography - you need to be there at the right moment. Not only when the light is right (which often happens to be just after sunrise or just before sunset) but also when your subject ready!
Ernst Haeckel was a reknown 19th century biologist, naturalist, philosopher, and last but not least, artist. His extraordinary work “Kunstformen der Natur” (Art Forms in Nature) includes a hundred beautiful illustrations of animals and plants. This exceptional work had a important influence on the Art Nouveau movement of his time.
