As people interfere with nature (and vice-versa) there is some
overlap between some galleries in the collections, as there is also
some overlap among photographs in the galleries.

MY PROFILE(click on link for details) I photograph native cultures and nature in tropical countries
(Latin America, Africa, some Asia). I am careful to correctly identify
photographs with scientific name whenever relevant and possible,
consulting a specialist if
necessary.
Some of my key concerns are the preservation of cultural and of
natural
diversity. I hope that my photography, used mainly in educational
media,
will contribute toward that goal. More recently my preoccupations have
extended to global warming and climate change.oals are to enjoy nature and contact with local people and cultures. My specialty is to travel to remote, little known places not yet affected by the stressful pace of modern life. Currently I photograph the Cerrado (savannas) and the rural people (small farmers, cowboys) of the Central Brazil Highlands. I am careful to correctly identify my pictures, sending them to a specialist if necessary. I traveled extensively in Africa, then in Latin America; in both regions I photographed the rainforest.
Next trip: Brazil Highlands: end April - May 2010.
I will go again to my favorite region, the Brazilian Highlands, toward the end of April and in May. I plan to visit places that I don´t know yet, but always starting from my headquarters, the adobe farm house reached by 28 km of mountain dirt road.
Still working on Photoshop before going, optimizing my website, marking my presence on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.
