About The Photographer
With his curious mind, an appetite for exploration, and a love of travel, Viktor Davare came to Canada from Switzerland in 1978, eventually immigrating here. He spent 13 years in Calgary before settling on Vancouver Island, British Columbia - first to Victoria for 2 years and finally relocating to the Comox Valley in 1993.
Viktor's travel portfolio is extensive, travelling to many places worldwide, including but not limited to the South Pacific, Indonesia, New Zealand, Malaysia, China, Australia, and Europe. Viktor's love of travel led to his love of photography - for him the two go hand in hand. Viktor feels the world is such a beautiful place, and travelling to and photographing so many exotic places has enabled Viktor to share a slice of the beauty he's
been privileged to see - 'I see the world for them.'
Viktor's avows that photography allows him to see the world in a much more intimate manner. Through the lens Viktor uncovers the intimacies of the world, seeing details that are only visible with the photographic eye. Viktor aspires to bring forth these magical elements when photographing his subjects.
A common theme runs through much of Viktor's work - Motion. In his personal life, Viktor prefers to be on the move, avoiding idleness at all costs. A go getter at heart, Viktor must be on the go, and so do his photographs. Whether an eagle in flight, a waterfall careening over a cliff, or dogs at play, Viktor's photographs usually depict action. He is also inspired by the great outdoors and loves to be out exploring and discovering new and exciting places. Paired together Viktor creates some amazing nature and wildlife images.
Viktor's greatest joy is to share the world, especially the great outdoors, in all its splendor with others. While his photography allows others to see the world, his greatest aspiration is to bring people to the world. Vancouver Island is a playground for nature photography and for those wanting to experience the natural world - this is the place to come. Whether hiking through Strathcona Park, eagle spotting in the Comox Valley, exploring the many islands close at hand, or capturing that perfect bear shot, Viktor is your guide! With his photographic knowledge and love of the outdoors Viktor will guide you to many beautiful spots where photo opportunities abound. Viktor's enthusiastic nature and playful personality are both a delight, and with his knowledge of the area, together these make for a perfect photography guide.
