Gemenc in November

After our book launch in Budapest (11 November), we stayed one more week in Hungary, and some afternoons I tricked my way into a hiding tent in Gemenc (a floodplain forest by the Danube, close to Baja town). For a start, my plan was to photograph wildboars, but the circumstances did not let it happen – I saw a lot of them, but they did not come near me. However, as soon as other living creatures showed up nearby my “post”, it was easy to abandon my original plan. Grey herons started to fight in front of my eyes, a white tailed eagle was sailing in the air in magic evening lights, and one evening a “horny” red deer was mirroring in the muddy water just a few metres from me. I could not complain:)

Since 2005, we have travelled together as a team, constantly being on the move to capture those memorable experiences in nature, with our cameras in our hands. Our projects capture different parts of the "Cap of the North", in a never-ending search for eye-catching scenes, and the magic light that is so characteristic of this region. It is the desire to get back to our roots – to live with nature that inspires us to create the images that we do.
