River Kedzier-hurst, The misunderstood (ANIMALS 2026)

When I photograph animals, I hope to capture their unique and ethereal beauty so that everyone can appreciate them, no matter any pre-existing fears, biases, or geographic location. All of these shots were taken in urban residential areas, places where if look closer at what's right in front of us, all beauty can be appreciated.
