Welcome to my galleries.
The images you are about to see are the manifestation of life as I perceive it, registered by my camera. Located in Maui, Hawaii, this wonderful land is so rich in nature and cultural diversity that a constant flow of opportunities allow me to cultivate this passion.
My approach to photography is to capture what I witness, with as little interference as possible. Nothing is manicured, preset or altered in any way. I use as much natural light as I can.
All wildlife interactions are spontaneous and unprovoked.
Animals are photographed in their normal behavior in their natural environment. Nothing is forced.
From amazing underwater coral reefs and its fragile ecosystem, so much threatened by urban development, overfishing, aquarium collection and all forms of human depletion, to stunning dramatic landscapes where nature explodes in a symphony of colors, so rich that blur the boundaries between reality and imagination. And the protagonists of this never ending drama of life, their culture and activities, their feelings and manifestations. I photograph what captures my attention.
Join me in this journey of discovery of some of the wonders we look at everyday but we hardly ever really see. Hopefully my work will help revert that and create the proactive conscience to educate ourselves, preserve and respect our natural environment and its inhabitants.
This world is the only home we have, never forget that.
Most images are for sale in the form of high quality prints and derivative products that you can order directly. Digital downloads are also available in some cases. Simply select your choices and add them to the shopping cart.
Selected images are available as Fine Art upon request. Just send me an email including the image title of your choice. See the contact page.
The slideshow feature available in all galleries provides a richer experience.
