Michael Fuchs Photography
Nature, wildlife, and landscape photographer. I have had a weekly photography blog at michaelfuchsphotography.com since 2006.
- This is a freshly hatched (only minutes old) wild gold dust day gecko that I photographed on the big island of Hawaii. Even though they aren’t indigenous to Hawaii, they are such amazing little creatures. #wildlifephotography #photography #nature #naturephoto
- This was a beautiful little lake where we camped on the Yukon border. We spent the evening sitting on the edge of the lake watching beavers. The light was perfect as the sun slowly set over the lake as wolves howled in the distance. #Landscape #Alaska #photography #nature #naturephoto
- I photographed this long-tailed weasel in central California. I find them to be a challenging photography subject as they are super-fast and almost never pause or sit still. #photography, #nature #naturephoto #wildlifephotography
- I took this image on the northwest side of Heron Island in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. This was at a depth of only about 15 ft in very clear water. On the right side of the image, the water progressively gets shallower up to the water surface at the edge of the cay (about a half mile away)
- I took this photograph near Caliente, California. This is open ranch land. Most of the year, the hills are the classic California tawny color, but sometimes in the spring, if the rain has been good, the hills turn a beautiful green.
- I took this photograph in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. I think I could sit and watch wild Hippopotamus all day. Hippos are fairly dangerous animals and are typically nocturnal, but they are still surprisingly active during the day.
- I’ve been enjoying watching Salmon run in the many streams and rivers of Alaska. It’s impressive how far they travel to spawn. I took this photograph of Sockeye Salmon traveling up a river near Hanes Alaska.
- I’ve been trying for a few years to photograph native California Pronghorn Antelope without much luck. There are very few of them left in the southern Sierra Nevada mountains. I was happy to find this healthy male roaming the hills along the Pacific Crest Trail.
