Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sanna Kannistos Metier ist die Naturfotografie. Wie ihre Vorbilder sieht sie sich dabei sowohl als Wissenschaftlerin als auch als Künstlerin. Und tatsächlich steht ihr analytischer Blick ihrer Kreativität und Leidenschaft in nichts nach. Sie schafft Momente von außergewöhnlicher Schönheit, die zugleich Verborgenes ans Licht bringen. Für ihre Aufnahmen von Vögeln bedient sie sich einer eigenen Arbeitsweise. Sie nimmt die Tiere vor einem extra hierfür ausgeleuchteten, weißen Hintergrund auf. Herausgelöst aus ihrer gewohnten Umgebung tritt jedes Detail in unnachahmlicher Klarheit hervor und erlaubt ein genaues Studium. Zugleich entsteht eine eigene Bildästhetik: Das Gefieder erstrahlt hell, der Flügelschlag gewinnt eine majestätische Qualität und das tiefe Schwarz der Vogelaugen scheint eindringlich Richtung Kamera zu blicken. Die nötige Geduld, um diese Aufnahmen zu realisieren, hat sich gelohnt. Denn schöner als in diesen Aufnahmen lassen sich Vögel kaum darstellen.
