Gerhard Hüdepohl was born in Germany in 1957.
Since his early years he has been fascinated with nature and landscapes, trying to capture their beauty with his camera.

In 1997 he moved from Germany to the north of Chile, the Atacama Desert, where he dedicates his time to photograph remote and little known places.

Apart from the desert he enjoys to explore locations where nature is still mostly untouched, such as Antarctica and subantarctic islands, the temperate rainforests and glaciers of Patagonia or the jungle and mountains of Bolivia.

As a private pilot Gerhard Hüdepohl often takes the opportunity to fly over astonishing landscapes to capture them from the air.

His photos have been published in numerous books, magazines and calendars in Europe, USA, Chile and elsewhere.
