Scientific wildlife photography: global biodiversity, accurately identified species and documented habitats.
Our new collection of wildlife photography and natural landscapes highlights European and global biodiversity through a rigorous, well-documented approach. In the Alps and the Vosges mountains, Michel Rauch captures the Eurasian Sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus) hunting, the Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) in flight, and interactions between Red Squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) in forest environments. Fabrice Cahez complements this exploration of French wildlife with detailed images of Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus), Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes), Pine Marten (Martes martes), and common bird species, illustrating behavior, seasonal changes, and natural habitats.
Macro wildlife photography plays a central role in this selection. Stéphane Vitzthum documents ecological interactions with precision: Western Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) in flight, harlequin ladybird (Harmonia axyridis) preying on aphids, Common Blue butterfly (Polyommatus icarus), Alpine Newt (Ichthyosaura alpestris), and Asp Viper (Vipera aspis). Each image combines accurate taxonomic identification, ecological context, and precise location data, enhancing its scientific and educational value.
Marine ecosystems and iconic landscapes complete the collection. Colin Marshall and Jean Cassou reveal the remarkable underwater biodiversity of the Lembeh Strait in Indonesia, featuring nudibranchs and cleaner shrimps, while Franco Banfi photographs Spinner Dolphins (Stenella longirostris) and Olive Ridley Sea Turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) in the Pacific Ocean. Christophe Lehénaff explores Icelandic landscapes, the American West, desert environments, and astrophotography subjects such as the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) and the Milky Way.
This monthly selection reflects our commitment to professional nature photography: accurate captions, standardized scientific names, precise geographic information, and authentic documentation of wildlife behavior in natural environments. A curated image collection designed for publishing, editorial use, science communication, and biodiversity outreach.
