Hi I am Martin Kopecky' I have had a love for the outdoors and nature since growing up in the Czech Republic where I lived for 27 years before moving to the United States in 1996.  I have always had an interest in photography, but over the past few years my interest in photography has become a true passion.  Capturing the beauty of the sunrise while watching wildlife awaken to a new day has always fascinated me and I am especially drawn to the splendor of birds.  Wherever I travel, I try to take in the unique characteristics of the geographic region and the birds that live in that habitat.
 
I focused my first year in film and then transitioned into digital photography.  Since 1996 I have lived mostly in the Carolina's, but have just recently moved to Florida.  And in my view I have found heaven, this is a birding paradise.
 
I truely hope that you enjoy viewing my pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them.  I have been published in several magazines and a couple of books, and most recently I have had the honor of being published in National Geographics Magazine.  This is truely one of the best highlights of my life.
