Mofeed Abu Shalwa has been a professional photographer and scientific researcher for over a decade. Traveling through forests around the world, he captures endangered creatures using focus-stacking technology, revealing surreal and fascinating details.

“My journey into macro photography began with a quiet fascination for the hidden beauty found in the smallest corners of nature. I was raised in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, in a small village surrounded by orchards and patches of greenery. Ironically, as a child, I had a deep fear of insects—a fear that made choosing this field of photography a significant challenge,” Mofeed shared with us when asked about the inspiration behind his work.
