Earth Day

Earth Day - Jour de la Terre

I had the honour to talk with Lyne Barnabé, Art reporter at Radio-Canada, for Earth Day. As you already know, I promote ethics in nature photography and her article details my approach in that regard. Whether we photograph nature and wildlife at home or abroad, it is important to respect wild animals and their habitat: keep a safe distance, use a telephoto lens, do not disturb their activities, never feed wildlife, do not call them or destroy their habitat to get a better photo. I encourage you to read Lyne Barnabé’s article (in French) and check the photos.

J’ai eu l’honneur de parler avec Lyne Barnabé, journaliste culturelle à Radio-Canada, pour le Jour de la Terre. Comme vous le savez déjà, je promeus l’éthique en photographie naturaliste et son article détaille bien mon approche. Que nous photographions la nature et la faune à la maison ou à l’étranger, il est important de respecter les animaux sauvages et leur habitat : garder une distance sécuritaire, utiliser un téléobjectif, ne pas déranger leurs activités, ne jamais les nourrir, ne pas les appeller our détruire leur habitat afin d’obtenir une meilleure photo. Je vous invite à lire l’article de Lyne Barnabé et regarder les photos.
