When photographing landscapes or more general eco aspects, such as the presentation of protected areas or geographical / massive mountains, rivers,


the species have a role of exemplification, of putting some details but they do not have a primary role. In this sense, there is not much difference if it is known exactly what species it is - or the systematic classification is not clear, having in the image only a plant that looks good, a bird of prey, something mushroom. The role of images with those species is to show what beings can be seen in the area, for example more or less vaguely. In this context, the species have a secondary role, the priority being the system, the ecosystem, ie the higher rank entity.

When shooting species - done as such, the situation changes completely. Here the foreground is the species itself. It therefore becomes fundamentally important to know exactly the systematic classification, what species of bird, or rodent or fungus or plant it is. Without the definite definition of the specific affiliation, or with the wrong determination of the species, the whole edifice is undermined from the start. In this context, of photographing the species, it does not matter so much whether the photograph is taken somewhere or elsewhere,

in the Alps or in America, or other aspects of this kind; what matters in the essential way is that the species be presented as perfectly as possible.
