A - D - VAN BREUGEL Floris (40) More files...
Floris van Breugel has a PhD in neuroscience inspired engineering, and when not out photographing, you can find him in the lab working towards understanding how insect brains work. This scientific mindset has had a strong influence on his photography, and he is keenly interested in discovering and sharing interesting phenomenon through unique and curiosity-inspiring imagery.



In his landscape and wildlife images, Floris tries to capture the feeling of solitude, the peace and quiet, and the freedom that wilderness offers. He is most at home making images far away from the ever-encroaching crowds of civilization, and specializes in exploring the wilderness areas near his home in the American west.



Floris' images have been successful in international competitions such as the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year Awards and Nature's Best, and have been published in magazines including Living Bird, Terra, Geo, and NaturFoto.
