Shape of Nature - David Maitland

Descriere Shape of Nature - David Maitland

David Maitland is an internationally acclaimed nature and science photographer. He has a BSc Hons (St. Andrews) and a doctorate (UNSW) in zoology, and is a fellow of the Royal Photographic Society. Maitland's academic research has focused on the form and function of life forms, especially invertebrates, and his publication list includes nature papers on how maggots jump; crabs that breathe air with their legs; and asymmetry in the predation of trilobites. Photography has always featured prominently in his work, and he now combines an academic viewpoint with a new sense of enquiry combining art and science. His specialist macro and microscopy skills have been employed by the BBC for Wonders of Life and Human Universe. Maitland is the recipient of international photography awards including POYi, Sony World Photography, British Photography Awards, and Wildlife Photographer of the Year. He was named European Wildlife Photographer of the Year in 2008 and was the winner of the International Images for Science and a RPS Gold Medal in 2015. He lives in St Andrews, Scotland.
