Even there, amidst the metropolitan buzz, I was only a half-hour bus ride away from nature reserves teeming with all sorts, from cute marsupials like wombats or wallabies, to intimidating reptiles and spiders. Not only did some of these species look unlike any other animal I had ever seen, but they also showed some fascinating behaviours. During these simple day trips, I managed to photograph duels between male kangaroos, fruit bat groups leaving their colonies to hunt, and even some of the largest spiders in the world building their webs. There truly are infinite possibilities when documenting Australian wildlife. I used to rely on my telephoto lens for anything wildlife-related, but this experience made me venture into the world of macro photography, as I realised even the smallest creatures have a story to tell. I cannot recommend enough that wildlife photographers should visit Australia at least once. This country enchants you with its natural beauty wherever you go, even in those places where humans have seemingly taken over.
