Wet Look

I truly love the combo of the long beak, the strongly colored skin around the eyes & stark colors of the breast feathers. It was pouring cats and dogs on that day in Ecuador’s Cloud Forest. I got this Pale-mandibled Araçari at eye level, preening, lucky to be close enough for this detailed shot.

About Artist

A. Pires

The broad diversity and beauty of nature is breathtaking if you allow yourself to dive into it. For me, it is even some form of meditation. It´s the little detail like a color combination, a feather pattern that make me smile broadly. I’d love to show you some of it through my lens, my pictures. My name is Anja and I am a non-pro photographer based in Switzerland. I'd love to turn my passion into profession in the future. Thank you!
