photos by alex geifman, who followed a family of foxes in jerusalem’s ben shemen forest nature reserve. says geifman, “i live in middle east on the desert’s edge. the colours are dull here, animals shy, the sky is flat and cloudless. for years i considered my country not suitable for nature photography.”
“eventually i discovered that dusty air softens the light and cloudless sky guarantees the sunset light. lack of open spaces led to the fact that animals live near by people and i can photograph them on daily basis before and after work.”
in fact, the burrow of these foxes was located close to a dirt road, and as alex explains, “because of this closeness, the foxes got used to the bypassing cars and cyclists, and i was able to capture their behavior from my car without attracting their attention at all.”
