Anton Trexler says:
On my daily way to school, I always passed this tree where in autumn some long-eared owls spend their day. I have been photographing them after school for a long time. One day there was just one owl sitting perfectly in the birch. The vertical camera movement (ICM) creates white lines of the overexposed sky, which support the almost melancholy hanging branches of the birch as a pictorial element. The setting sun shines golden through the yellow-green foliage in some places. Because The Owl and its branch are darker than the rest of the tree, they didn’t appear blurred.

My passion for bird photography started at the age of 10. During my childhood, I always kept motivated to go out in the morning, sometimes before school. Over the years, photography as an art became more and more my focus and now, after graduating from school, photography is more than a passion and touches me every day. In addition to nature photography, I also accompany some projects in reportage photography. This year I’m doing a photography project together with children in Namibia.
