Self Reflection

At the center of the earth, in the middle of the rainforest and surrounded by a family of mountain gorillas whose behaviour and physical appearance is very similar to our own. Looking into those eyes is almost like looking into a mirror.

About Artist

Johan Siggesson

A wildlife photographer from Sweden residing on the small Mediterranean island of Malta. From an early age I was passionate about animals and the natural world. Before Animal Planet, Nat Geo Wild and the likes, I was always glued in front of the weekly nature program on Swedish state television. No matter if it was lions in Africa, wolves in Yellowstone or Polar bears in Svalbard, I practically grew up with Sir David Attenborough’s voice at the back of my head. From the moment I bought my first digital camera I was hooked. The creativity that is unleashed with instant feedback on the screen, variable ISO and more or less unlimited image capacity is something that really appeals to me. This, combined with a passion for animals, is a recipe for a wildlife photographer. When I am not out photographing or stuck in front of my Mac processing images, I enjoy a good meal or watching a game of soccer with friends… And a cold beer. I hope that you like viewing my images just as much as I enjoyed taking them! In early, 2019 I was one of the fortunate to be accepted into Sweden’s most prestigous nature photography association called Naturfotograferna/N. A great honour!
