The following images of wild birds and animals in their
natural habitats are taken in various countries around the world.
None of these photos are of captive animals. All of the images
on this page are copyright Christian Artuso (all rights reserved).
The majority are 35mm colour slides, which unfortunately lose
quality when scanned for on-screen viewing, with more recent
photos being digital (originals average 3 Mb in size).
If you wish to use any of these photographs, please contact
me at chartuso@hotmail.com.
The price depends on the intended usage and the resolution required.
Some of these photographs already appear in various magazines
and books from around the world, so exclusive contracts are not
available. Many of these images can be donated to conservation
agencies free of charge, provided prior permission is obtained
and I am credited as the photographer.
Sample photographs are arranged on this site in the ten
galleries indicated on the left. The first 9 galleries are of
birds, arranged following Sibley and Monroe taxonomy. Images within
the galleries are arranged in alphabetical order of their common
names, typically using the naming conventions of the region where
the species was photographed. Simply click on the thumbnails to
view larger images. The special
feature is an exposé of a particular species or habitat
or behaviour and is changed regularly.
The images on these pages represent a sample of my wildlife
photography. I have many photographs of other species not shown
here (over 1900 species of birds). Please consult the following
bird species list or email me if you are
looking for an image of a particular species. I try to update
this page as often as possible, so the photographs displayed may
change from time to time.
I hope you enjoy these images!
