Luca Lorenz's Image
Luca Lorenz (Germany) explores his passion for the natural world by viewing it through an artistic lens.
Luca was photographing mute swans on an urban lake one evening.
A coypu, a rodent introduced from South America, appeared in the frame.
Coypu were shipped across the world for the fur trade. They’ve since established many feral populations.
