But what do naturalist photographers do during confinement?

Spring this season is good for photos. These moments when nature wakes up. This time of year, outdoor enthusiasts and photographers are eagerly awaiting it. But confinement linked to the health crisis forces them too to stay at home. While outside, the birds sing and the sun announces the return of the beautiful days.

Photos in his garden for Pierre Morin

“I take pictures in my garden, there are quite a few birds at the moment. I saw a little crested wren the other day. Now I’m waiting for the swallows, they should arrive, “said the man who also took the opportunity to photograph the super moon at the beginning of April.Pierre Morin super moon photo – photo DR

This nature lover was even able to observe something quite rare: a nozzle flight above the center of Chartres. The advantage of this confinement and the almost total cessation of all activity? ” The silence. There is much less noise and we hear a lot more of the birds, ”he notes.

Prepare the next exhibition for Emmanuel Tardy

Emmanuel Tardy resolved to confine himself to his Eurelian house: “I live fairly well. In terms of professional life, I telecommute two days a week and for my passion, the period of confinement has turned out to be rather beneficial. I do everything that I can’t do in normal times. I am preparing my next exhibition, which should take place in September. I am also preparing a photo book on the animals of my childhood, alongside my grandfather. That said, I continue to train in other areas of journalistic photography, reporting … And I photograph my cats when I never do. “Emmanuel Tardy
