Marcel Huijser Photography Home
This is where I show the most recent images and talk about how they were made. The images typically relate to landscapes and wildlife, but I also blog about photos of highways and mitigation measures for wildlife or road ecology in general. Please contact me if you would like to use any of the images.

Starting tomorrow (Friday 1 November 2013), one of my raven images (see below) will be on display and for sale at the 4 Ravens Gallery in Missoula. I am very excited about this development. The gallery hosts a variety of work from some of the best local and regional artists. The materials and art include wood, stone, metal, glass, fiber, gourds, traditional basketry, clay, leather and of course photography. This month the gallery celebrates its one year anniversary with a raven theme. Come check it out on First Friday Art Walk Fri 1 November if you have a chance.

Our Toyota Landcruiser from the Oyu Tolgoi mine at night, Ömnögovi, Mongolia. The red light on the antenna is for safety. If there is a hill, oncoming traffic will see the red light before they see the actual headlights of the vehicle.

Road ecology blog: Divided culverts under road between Hanbogd and Oyu Tolgoi, Gobi, near Hanbogd, Ömnögovi, Mongolia. This structure appears good enough for water to pass through, should it rain in this desert. However, it also shows how divided culverts only allow for a narrow view for wildlife that may be interested in using the culvert to cross to the other side of the road. Having one opening, without dividers is considered more inviting to wildlife, and it also becomes less likely the culvert will become plugged, e.g. through tree branches or other debris.
