I am a official photographer about some contests of horsing. So, I have some friends in this world. This photograph has been taken during 2012 winter. But, this day, I was very cold !!!

In Masais village, when they bring back their herd in the evening to protect them from the lions.

Yes, I love Nature ; but a photographer must not have any prejudices on a custom. It is part of the journalism! Photo taken during a corrida in Nîmes, France.

Pedro Moreno, world champion 2012 of FMX. Taken photo during a show in Tignes, France.

Photo taken in Tanzania in a Masai village. Shool for the children Masai is a luck !!! I was a guest of honor of this village, because I often go in this region and I know the chief of the village.

Photo taken (in live) during a concert of Free Wheels. She is the guitarist of the famous hard rock group : Crucified Barbara

I make a lot of report photos; but I put this photograph in the category color; because I think that it is better here. This photo has been taken at the time of the Free Wheels 2011, in France. The Free Wheels is one of the biggest concentrations of Harley Davidson in the world. I had luck to be the official photographer of the Hells Angels during these big concentrations. The bikers calls me "Rojo, the photographer of the bikers." The biker world is enough badly recognized in the world. Yet I can tell you that, in spite of their bizarre appearance, they are the men and the women of great value. Friendship and respect, these are their value and...I like it!

Blue tit taken in my garden where I had installed a look-out. It was very cold: -15°C during 10 days 🙁

Fighting of elephants in Tarangire National Park. Photo taken in 2015 February.

Fighting of zebras in Serengeti National Park, in 2009 March. This photo shows the fight of two males for the supremacy of the herd. Some times they bite violently. Here, one of the two zebras had been bitten toward the rear paw and they continued to fight. They had blood everywhere!

Photo taken in Serengeti National Park in 2014 March. This jackal had just killed a hare. it only remained some tenth of second before me, to 50m. The wildlife photo of must be taken very quickly, otherwise you miss the photo 🙁

This photo is widely-known. OK But it is an extraordinary photo. Indeed, I made more than 20 African safaris; but it was the only time that I could take such a photo. The leopards hunt the night the most often. In day, they recline in a tree. They hunt from time to time in day; but with very difficulty because a lot of predator steals their preys. The Nature sometimes offers us the odds that it is not necessary to miss! Photo taken in Serengeti, in 2011 February.

Photo taken in The Natural Reserve of Pont de Gau, France, in 2015 April. Mating of pink flamingos is quick : 3-5 seconds.

Photo taken in Serengeti National Park, in 2013 March. During a game drive, I had luck to arrive toward this tree. Useless to tell you that it's not necessary to eat lunch Under 😉

This wildlife photo has been taken in the Ngorongoro National Park, in March 2001. In this time, I worked with film FUJI Velvia 50. This photo as well as the whole set of the fight was the subject of an article in the PSA Journal in 2003. It was an extraordinary fight, ever again seen according to my friend ranger!!!
