Olaf Karwisch is a nature photographer from Aalen in eastern Baden-Württemberg, Germany, who captures the world's diverse beauty with his camera. His interests are as varied as his passion: wildlife, landscape and aerial photography are all part of his repertoire, complemented by the occasional architectural motif.

Olaf has developed and honed his passion for photography over decades - from his early days as a wedding and portrait photographer to his current focus on nature photography. His focus is not only on documentary photography, but also on creative interpretation and attention to detail.

His work focuses on wildlife photography, especially the world of birds. With tireless patience and great fascination he devotes himself to the feathered inhabitants of forests and meadows, but also to small and large mammals. Olaf limits himself to bird photography in 10photos. Each season offers him new challenges and unique encounters: from the awakening of nature in spring to the migration of birds in autumn. His images capture moments that reflect the diversity of life in nature - sometimes spectacular, sometimes subtle and inconspicuous, but always with a special touch.

Olaf's work is not always purely documentary: he likes to interpret motifs abstractly or artistically, creating new perspectives on nature. With this experimental approach, he deliberately breaks with convention in order to depict the aesthetic diversity of the world in an unusual way. His images surprise and inspire through creative compositions that shift the boundaries between reality and interpretation.

As well as traditional photography, Olaf also travels with a drone. This technology gives him new perspectives and the opportunity to see familiar landscapes and buildings from unusual angles. This aerial perspective adds a new dimension to his work, which often explores the harmonious interplay between nature and human intervention. His use of light, shadow and contrast creates visually appealing and technically impressive images.

Since 2024, Olaf Karwisch has been living a dream that many people dream of: together with his wife, he spends several months a year in a van, travelling through impressive landscapes and combining his work with his passion for photography. This life on the road is reflected in his images, which capture the vastness of the world and the feeling of freedom. Olaf Karwisch is a full member of the GDT (Gesellschaft für Naturfotografie - Society for Nature Photography), which underlines the quality and standard of his work.
