- on tour in: Africa (Ivory Coast 2x, Uganda), China (3x), Siberia (2x), Alaska, Australia & Tasmania (2x) and almost all over Western and Northern Europe
- constantly inspired by pictures in black&white or color, with hair and skin, scales and fur;
- behind the camera open to a wide range of ideas from stomach-driven and creative to a more documentary or journalistic approach
- loves the silent tension when fly-fishing as well as the tickling one when free-climbing, loves wine, red & white, from good old Europe
Concisely:
- 1971 eye-opener in Rheine, until 1978 in Schuettorf / Grafschaft Bentheim
- primary school and 5th / 6th grade in Lingen / Emsland
- 1984-1990 Gymnasium in Bad Essen / municipality of Osnabrueck, matura
- 1991-1998 studies Biology at the TH-Darmstadt (pre-diploma) and at the University of Osnabrueck, mains: ethology, ecology, zoology thesis in Siberia and Alaska, marks: excellent photography, travels
- 1999-2003 Managing Director of the Gesellschaft Deutscher Tierfotografen e.V. (German Association of Wildlife Photographers) & partly freelance photo-journalist and writer
- since 2003freelance photo-journalist, writer, workshop teacher, editor
- since 2007Communications Director of Wild Wonders of Europe
- Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers (ILCP) since 2006
The subjects I choose for my reportages on species and habitats are a result of restricted financial resources, my passion for nature in general, my journalistic interests and my background as a behavioral ecologist.
In that respect images and words are two very powerful tools for me that I try to use best in order to make people aware of natural history phenomena, threats to eco-systems and species and the often very ambiguous relation between man and wildlife.
I like the underdogs in the animal world, missing a fine reputation that might help them in their struggle for survival (stories on wild boar, cormorants, mink, raccoon dog). A topic seems an even greater challenge to me if it has political aspects to it – although such stories are not very saleable. People play a very strong part in my pictures and I try to showcase their attitude or engagement in nature, conservation and wildlife; may they be scientists, hunters, conservationists or animal lovers/keepers. I don’t travel to shoot for stock. I prefer taking my time, years if needed, and portray a topic from as many sides as are accessible to me.

“The Baggage Handlers” by Christian Moeller is an intriguing work that offers beauty both from afar and breathtaking detail from up close. The faces of six airport workers (three per each of two 75-foot by 12-foot panel) are made of over 4,000 strips of individually cut wood, with no two pieces alike. Moeller’s work has also been shown in Tokyo, London, Singapore, Rio de Janeiro, London, New York City, and Seattle.

Most advanced bino's from the 50' . All share focus on both okulars plus center focus and the "Stirnanlage", that ensure a steady hold.You see the stirnanlage in the middle between the okulars.
The build quality of these late Moeller/Wedel binoculars is difficult to explain, they must be seen and tested before you realise that they proberly are among the finest binoculars made. The prisms are modified roof prisms and the lenses are offcaurse coated -- but with rooftop prisms more important, the prisms are coated to , to avoid faseshift problems. When production stopped it was becaurse the marked for so advanced and expensive bino's faded,I guess they simply was to expensive. Before WW2 in the 20's M/W were a serious competitor of small binoculars of modern designs, esp. oposed Zeiss that late 20's, started a "war" against M/W.and ended up taking over the firm and it's patnt. It was these and the line of fine binoculars zeiss build on, with much of their new designs starting in 1928. After WW2 in the start of the 50's M/W was freed from these restrictions and started a compleatly new production of top notch bino's.
