I'm a zoologist from the Czech republic. I work for a non - profit organization. I prefer photographing wildlife and animals at zoos. I am interested in ornithology. My favest birds are Corvids, I adore their intelligence and flexibility. The most photographed bird species is a jackdaw and I find these birds very special to me!
I run a group about them: www.flickr.com/groups/jackdaws/
I'm also in love with cetaceans, especially with killer whales.
I live in Prague for all my life (and I love this city very much!).
Here are some interesting shots of me: www.flickr.com/photos/jan_slavik/sets/72157603086632469/

I love its sober style and natural at the same time, its photos transmit peace, clarity and serenity and this I appreciate it a lot. It appeals to also its passion to me for orcas and the dolphins, and this thing I share it (I am a lover of these charming animals too). I like a lot your photos, you have a good hand and you succeed to arrange many colors, standing out dark tones with some lives to us (like in the case of the fish clown, optimal combination!)
