A WILD EYE VIEW

The Wild Eye View story started with a close up photo of a buffalo scratching its neck on a spindly tree right next to the road. I was driving and Stuart had the camera. When we saw the look that that old Dagga Boy gave us that day a quest to photograph the best nature has to offer was born.

We hope you enjoy looking at our art as much as we enjoy creating it.

MOMENTS IN TIME

Some say photography is capturing light. Others say it's capturing a moment in time. A good photo is both.

Our favorite photos are those that come with a story. Others are a memory of a moment in time. Often that once in a lifetime chance that make it special.

These stories and experiences will be told in the Blog section and we hope they are good reading. 

 
ART IS NOT WHAT YOU SEE, BUT WHAT YOU MAKE OTHERS SEE
— Edgar degas
 

OUR INTERPRETATION

The French Impressionists changed the way people looked at art. They made people stop and look and think about what it was they were looking at.

You look at those paintings one day and you see what you see. Another day, in different light you see them differently.

So it is with the natural world. Look carefully at Natures Art. If you really look...you will be amazed at what you see

Natures design is incredible. It is always functional and highly efficient. The way different species interlink, contradict and balance each other out is so sophisticated we struggle to understand it. The way natures colours are matched and tones and hues blend together breaks all the rules but they always work and make total sense.

Man thinks he is clever, but the fact is man is still way behind nature in every respect. So lets respect and enjoy what nature gives us while we have it, because much of what we take foregranted today may not be around for our grandchildren to enjoy when they are our age because of our stupidity!
