Behind every photograph in BIG – The Book of Giants lies a heartbeat — not just of the animals captured, but of the man behind the lens.
In The Emotional Journey, Marko Dimitrijevic invites readers to go beyond the image to feel the awe, fear, admiration, and empathy that come from standing face-to-face with the giants of our planet.
This section of BIG is not just a collection of wildlife portraits; it’s a deeply personal reflection of Marko’s encounters with nature’s most magnificent creatures. Through his eyes, we don’t just see the wild we feel it.
From the adrenaline rush of diving with great white sharks to the quiet humility of meeting a towering elephant in the African savannah, Marko Dimitrijevic captures raw emotion in every frame. His camera doesn’t simply record what he sees it reveals what he experiences.
Each photograph in BIG carries a story of courage, curiosity, and connection. It represents the silent dialogue between man and nature one where no words are needed, only respect.
“When I look into the eyes of a giant, I see a mirror a reflection of our shared world and fragile existence.”
— Marko Dimitrijevic
The emotional depth of BIG – The Book of Giants comes from Marko’s ability to translate human emotion into visual storytelling.
He allows readers to feel what he felt the thrill of proximity, the vulnerability of being exposed in the wild, and the overwhelming gratitude for the chance to witness nature in its purest form.
These emotions are what make BIG so unique. It’s not about dominance or conquest it’s about harmony, humility, and coexistence.
Marko’s empathy for the animals he photographs reminds us that true beauty lies not in the size of the creature, but in the connection we share with it.
Every encounter tells a story of discovery of both the natural world and the human spirit.
The Emotional Journey invites readers to reflect on their own emotions as they turn each page:
Awe at the grandeur of life.
Respect for the strength and fragility of nature.
Fear for what could be lost if we fail to protect it.
Hope that beauty and balance can still be restored.
