Welcome to speleo-photo, the website of karst and cave photographer Max Wisshak.

Here, you will find photo galleries relating to the underground world of caves and the surface phenomena of karst landscapes, along with images of some of the most bizarre caves on earth. Additional panorama galleries portray karst areas around the globe. In caves, it is extremely difficult to capture such panoramas but they offer truly unusual perspectives.

There is information on publications featuring my underground images, and my coffee-table books, such as Inside Mother Earth. The latest coffee-table books New Zealand Karst and Lechuguilla Cave were realised under the umbrella of my own publishing label speleo-photo editions.

Furthermore, the relation of cave photography and conservation is addressed, and finally, you can learn about my background and find my contact details.

Enjoy your virtual journey across karstic landscapes and into the realm of caves!
