Of Stars and Beasts (Series)
DESCRIPTION
With this series of images, taken in Hungary and South Africa, I would like to draw attention to the possibilities lying in artificial lights. The majority of nature photographers are afraid of using flash, lamps or other artificial light; though, with these techniques we may see lots of interesting scenes which would remain hidden from our eyes without lightning. Some of these photos were made by mixing natural and artificial lights, while others were made by using different types of artificial light. The greatest challenge is to use artificial lights, so that the result seems to be natural.
