PJ Kaszas Photography & Art

PJ Kaszas Photography & Art Wildlife Photography and Art I do art in service to animals, nature, science, and history. I tell stories using light, color, composition, and words.

I am a wildlife and documentary photographer as well as a writer, painter, poet, multimedia designer, world traveler, and a former archaeologist. For the past several years I’ve focused on photographing wild horses wherever they are found. But all the wild things we share our world with fascinate me. Through my photography I hope to share some of that wonder and curiosity, and especially show that

sometimes that wonder and curiosity, between photographer and subject, goes both ways and there is so much that the wild world around us can teach us. I am co-founder of Wild Horse Photography Collective () on Instagram) and Bonkers for Burros (), ever-growing communities of photographers devoted to documenting the lives of these amazing beings. When not traveling or wandering around with my camera, I can usually be found stuck on a train somewhere between Cape Cod and Boston, Massachusetts or on my couch reading a book.

This little female grizzly was the first bear we saw on this trip in British Columbia. She was the smallest of the bears we would end up seeing. She was beautiful in the afternoon sunlight.

This scene, with this bear’s all too brief turn of its face into the sun, is the scene that is stuck in my mind when I think about my trip to see these bears.

This week I thought I’d share some photos of Grizzly Bears that I took in 2018. This was in British Columbia. It was September and the bears were busy hunting salmon. This was a unique experience. We weren’t allowed to speak. We only moved when our guides moved. It was amazing to be in the forest, in silence, with just the sounds of birds, rushing water, and the footsteps of bears.

This Canada Goose is Husband 2 from my videos Life on the Pond. That is pronounced Husband Number Two. I can’t hashtag the two because hashtagging “number 2” isn’t recommended. For reasons…

Anyway, I digress.

A fellow photographer told me recently she loved my appreciation of animals that don’t get enough of our attention. And here I am posting a photo of a Canada Goose, that is probably one of the least liked birds in North America. I thought about that. A lot. I started as a wildlife photographer wanting to show people the things that might be living right in their backyards that they are taking for granted, think are ugly, or are in danger of losing thanks to climate change and overdevelopment. And as I was thinking about this I realized so many wildlife photographers, including me, go on these big adventures to remote places that most people will never visit. But do you have to do these big, exciting trips to be a wildlife photographer, to call yourself a wildlife photographer? No. You don’t. Your backyard, the park in the middle of your city or down the block from you, the parking lot of your local Walmart has wildlife. I frequently just sit in a chair in my backyard or friends’ backyards with my camera. Some of the most exciting birding I’ve done is in Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts where Red-Tailed Hawks and Peregrine Falcons breed on the tall buildings. If you haven’t watched Peregrine Falcons diving off heights of the Prudential Center and taking out pigeons you haven’t lived. I think what I’m trying to say is to be a wildlife photographer you just need a camera. And you need to know how to use it. And you have to have a point of view (though this can develop later in the process). Location and the kinds of wild animals you are photographing doesn’t matter.
