MARKS KRAUS BIO: I am a Nature Photographer living in Cincinnati, Ohio. My passion is photographing wildlife indigenous to the Southern Ohio area. I have always loved doing things outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman. Now I bring many of those skills to my photography. I like to show views of wildlife many have not seen before. A good portion of my photos are taken at local parks around the greater Cincinnati area.
I have been photographing on and off for about 30 years. About 15 years ago I made photography a serious hobby, almost an addiction. Changed totally to digital 8 years ago and never looked back.
Mark has always loved Macro Photography Mark explains, “When I was starting out years ago, I couldn’t get enough of John Shaw books. I think his book Close-ups in Nature is what started my addiction. I also
like photographing any type of wildlife especially birds and small animals. If it gets me outdoors or in the woods, I will find something to photograph. And even if I do not get a shot, it will still be a
great day.”
Mark has won several awards over the years and have had images picked as top photos on the Nikonians web site for Macro and wildlife subjects. Link to Nikonians web Interview with Mark Kraus.
