Marcel van Osten was previously an office worker.
“The more I photographed, the more involved”, – says a former office worker Marcel van Osten (Marsel van Oosten), whose secret passion has always been photography. Currently, Marseille is one of the most famous Dutch photographers, winner of several prestigious awards and Creator of hundreds of amazing photos of wildlife.
One of the main themes of works by Marcel van Osten became wild. He always thought wild animals are very photogenic, and their behavior is worthy of attention. The heroes of his stories seem designed to pose for him – funny monkey, imposing “cats”, stern bears frolicking rodents – they all behave in a natural way while not hesitate to the photographer. Over the years as a photographer he managed to capture scenes of someone’s survival, and peaceful sleep, maternal care and romantic courtship, the passionate quarrels and friendly games…
What to say, and the animals are fascinating creatures, sincere and real in their actions and emotions. They are not shy to be herself in any situation. And even caught off guard and still behave as if nothing had happened. Photo series “an Unexpected guest” – better than any words proved right, because the photographs depict encounters human and animal that look at our little brothers without a smile is simply impossible.
