This is my new weekly series in which I will introduce a professional photographer who specializes in bird/wildlife photography. I hope that you will be inspired by their work!
Michael Snedic has been an enthusiastic naturalist and lover of wildlife since he was very young. It wasn’t until his early thirties, however, that he decided to take up photography. By using a camera, he was able to “freeze” specific moments in nature forever and share these moments with others, through photos.
Michael is one of Australia’s most accomplished and published nature photographers. He is a feature writer on nature photography and wildlife for various magazines. These include regular features on nature photography for Australian Photography and Wildlife Australia , as well as articles in Australian Geographic and the world-famous BBC Wildlife Magazine, the world’s largest selling wildlife magazine.
I was lucky enough to take a workshop with him sponsored by the Parrot Society of Australia last year and Michael is one of those rare individuals who not only has great skill but knows how to teach it. I took the photo of him below at the October 2012 workshop.
