Hans J, I'll join the choir! Fabulous pictures! I am especially taken by the "woody" pictures walking a lot in woods and forests myself.

Ian it could be that some of the photos on the web site are studio shots.
-
however he does it the photos are brilliant. Maybe s/he can be encouarged to join us and reveal all?

The photographer is Thomas Kaiser.... this page on his site tells a little about him.... http://www.naturfoto-thomaskaiser.de/pageID_9524212.html
He's a member of a nature photography group/club.
He's been more interested in nature photos for 15 years and finds his great inspiration from the area around his home, "outside his fronmt door": the Black Forest, Upper Rhine and the Vosges.
In addition, he also enjoys working in neighbouring French regions: Alsace, French Alps, Provence, Cévennes and the Carmargue.

Some words about Thomas :
he is not a full professional photograph ....only as hobbie !
...and he has shure no studio ....

Wonderful, wonderful photos. I love the lapwing chick especially.
-
wow only a hobby photographer :o Well done to Thomas
-
Truly fabulous photos, very inspiring.
Mark, I think that the secret is not the camera equipment, it's partly having the vision to capture the essence of the landscape or wildlife, and also having the time to get out there when the light is at it's best. Dawn light is fabulous for landscapes ( so I hear, I've never been a morning person myself..... ;) ). Of course living in a wonderfully scenic part of the world helps too!
-
I agree completely Peter ... many of my better shots were taken on a 3.4 megapixel camera ... great photographers like Thomas possess an 'artistic' eye that can detect and visualise pictures that others would simply ignore.
The equipment is, of course, important to capture an image of a usable size and quality but the 'eye' (and the ability to transfer that vision onto the memory card) is the most important factor in any memorable shot.

The dragonfly and spiders on this page are fantastic http://www.naturfoto-thomaskaiser.de/pageID_9525243.html (http://www.naturfoto-thomaskaiser.de/pageID_9525243.html)

wonderful images, and a beautiful area!
it is clear that your friend has spent a huge amount of time in these places to earn those images (besides his great technique!).lucky him, he must really love his work! (hobby, i just read, but still, the point is, to add to what peter and cliff mention---the 'eye' is indispensable--there is a lot of time involved in images like this--lots of practise and lots of time in the field-a labour of love whether or not its paying work!)
