About the photographer
Marcin Nawrocki is a member of The Union of Polish Wildlife Photographers and The Eagle Conservation Committee.
His passion for wildlife photography began when he spent time with a friend who was trying to take pictures of wildlife before sunrise.
For the past eight years he has spent a lot of time patiently waiting in hides to photograph animals in their natural surroundings.
The white-tailed eagle is particularly special to Marcin as it was the first bird of prey he photographed.
His fascination with the magnificent raptor continues to this day. He says, "This beautiful bird became my symbol in the world of wildlife photography."
