Shy Albatrosses

starting at €90.00

Water splashes as their wings, measuring over a meter in length, engage in fierce dispute in the fjord. The stern-looking shy albatrosses disagree on who owns the fish catch. These rascals, nesting on three islands off the coast of Tasmania, stop to feed in the foothills of New Zealand's steep mountains on their long journey across the southern oceans. The population of the shy albatross, which was once considered endangered, has grown from about 300 individuals to over 10,000 in just over a hundred years. This is quite an achievement, considering that each pair lays only one egg per year and that adults are killed by industrial fishing and disease, while chicks fall prey to gannets.

THEIR LAND – A series of organisms in their territories

A series of photographs featuring various organisms living alone or in communities within their territories. Their own land is a crucial habitat that knows no human-made boundaries such as national borders, property lines, or other. In their own land, organisms not only coexist peacefully with its own species and others, but also engage in mutual conflicts and fierce competition based on natural selection and balance – a struggle for existence.

The images in this series can be ordered with or without a white border and stylish info text.
