Award winning Hungarian photographer Bence Máté has won awards for his wildlife photographs. Bence, also known as ”the invisible wildlife photographer” can spend days, weeks or even months quietly tucked away in a hide that he has carefully designed and built.

Bence attributes his success to ”acute planning and patience with a dash of good luck,I have crouched for hours, days, weeks, sometimes even months waiting for fortune to shine.” His efforts payed off in the end. They don’t call him “the invisible wildlife photographer” for nothing!
