"Macro addict" - this is how a talented photographer calls himself Shikhei Goh … Among dozens of series of amazing landscapes and plants of the island of Batam, where the photographer comes from, among hundreds of photographs of turtles, lizards and birds, a portfolio consisting of macro photographs of insects stands apart. In particular, their huge, alien eyes, which the author singled out in a separate series Insect Eyes … They hypnotize and frighten, mesmerize and surprise, the huge mesh eyes of bees, wasps, praying mantises, flies and other insects that have ever become models for a Singaporean photographer. And if insects have a soul, in these eyes, as if woven from the thinnest multi-colored metal wire, you can see it all, without a trace.
Shikhei Go became famous as a photographer precisely because of his photography of wildlife, in particular, fauna. Not only insects, but also snakes, monitor lizards, geckos, frogs, squirrels and other living creatures have repeatedly come under fire from photographic guns. Many of Shikhei Go's photographs have won competitions, and have also been selected as National Geographic's snapshots of the week.
You can get acquainted with these and other photographs of the author on his website.
