The Sparrow Hawk

• Photographer
  Roberto Melotti

This photo is the result of a two-year project. The intention was to photograph a Sparrow hawk (which is already an animal not easy to photograph) in a creative, original way. The photo was taken just before dawn and the light effect was created through the use of three LED spot lights aimed a little higher than the height of the ground.

Roberto Melotti was born in Bologna, Italy. He considers photography as a document and a hymn to the beauty, where the subject is the nature, living and wild. Actually, he is Santa Viola Photography Club President and Photography Course Tutor.
