A series of photographs which question our traditional notions of nature photography.
Decades ago, nature was depicted using fine art techniques, as paintings and drawings, or using high quality 'realistic' photography.
Most of us now experience wildlife mediated by television or video.
These pictures combine video and photography in a new exploration of the esthetics of nature as art.
The birds were videotaped using a digital zoom, played back as still images on a TV monitor, the color saturation and hue adjusted on the screen, then photographed.
