I’ve been passionate with photography and fond of Africa since the begging of the 1980s but I only got interested in wildlife photography in 2005 and my work won recognition for the first time in 2007, when I had the honor to win the Great Prize at the Montier-en-Der Nature and Wildlife Photography International, with a quite regular photo of zebras in a pond.
My passion for Africa, that I’ve been travelling through for a long time now has never weakened, and if it’s true that I have a very strong affection for East African Great Plains felines, I really enjoy everything that Nature gives, and thanks to a foolproof patience I love to totally immerge in the bushes, alone with my guide, from sunrise to sunset, hoping to catch a daily life scene, a special light, action or atmosphere.
World is huge, Life is short, and even if I’m still faithful to my native area, I’m travelling more and more for a few years, with the same passion for fugitive but intense meetings.
