Sanna Kannisto's métier is nature photography. Like her role models, she considers herself both a scientist and an artist. Indeed, her analytical gaze complements her creativity and passion. She creates moments of unusual beauty that also shed light on what has been previously concealed.
Kannisto has developed her own method for taking pictures of birds, capturing the animals against a brilliantly lit, white background. Removed from their usual surroundings, every detail appears in matchless clarity, allowing for precise study. This also results in a unique visual aesthetic: the feathers glow brightly, the beating wings take on a majestic quality, and the deep black eyes of the birds seem to gaze hauntingly at the camera.
The patience required to produce these pictures has truly paid off, as it is hard to imagine more beautiful photographs of birds.
