Very good naturalist, he was able to find us cash colors and amazing shapes by immortalizing process Hyper Focus. Precursor of this photographic technique, he shows us an almost living nature that are expected to arise from the page. These quasi- 3D images are not photographs but rather "composite images" from the merger of dozens of shots. Another achievement has been to make these pictures in extreme conditions of tropical forests.

This beautiful new book "Hyper Nature" devouring eyes at a young age, makes you into the heart of tropical primary forests in the world. The process "Hyper focus", unique in the world, here reveals the incredible biodiversity of these fragile and endangered biogeographic zones. The author explores these areas for 30 years, reported 100,000 copies of Madagascar in 28 days by close-up photography, then transformed into 200 composite images from the stack of pictures (focus stacking), thanks to the "digital painting", which gives the images that extraordinary sensation of depth. Can this new visual approach to nature, beyond families, allow photographers, naturalists, educators, museum specialists and scientists to improve the knowledge and global environmental protection !
