  Born in 1983, the APAD (Association des Photographes Animaliers Bretons) wildlife photographers. Scattered over the 5 departments of historic Brittany, the fifteen members of the association have at heart to present regularly the fruit of their long hours of sharpening. Through the exhibitions, publication of books and slideshows, they share this passion and their works. They want to send a message. Their ethic has not changed since the beginning of the association. Nowadays, the technic has evolved, the natural environment has changed, the nature is vulnerable while the number of photographers has highly increased. All the more reason to be vigilant and to maintain a respectful approach to free and wild animals. The satisfaction of continuing to see birds, mammals, reptiles and other insects evolving will always be the first condition of taking the wanted photos

Exposition

 

From the earliest times, the atmosphere of the forests has always aroused the mystery suitable for tales and legends accompanied by a fantastic bestiary. Our Argoat, our forest made of vast wooded areas and moors, has not escaped. From the mythical Brocéliande to the most humble wood, from Paimpont to Gâvre, the spirits of the forest always seem to live for everyone who takes time to walk or land under the foliage and the houpiers. In the morning mists, through the rays of the sun suddenly illuminating the forest alleys, in the water or on the waters of a lake or a pond, a quiet and stealthy world appears for those who know how to listen, wait, watch and photograph. For sure, you won't see Merlin the Wizard and the fairies Morgane and Viviane at the bend of the paths, but the vision of a red deer, a wild boar or a peak ... and so many other animals is enough for this intense happiness to capture the moment of the fugitive apparition. The "Association des Photographes Animalier Bretons" offers you to meet this always fascinating fauna through this exhibition.
