When the art of living life to the extreme is done by one who dares to do it- also if the person is highly talented- it can only lead to same stunning and impressive result.

This is not just an hypothesis I'm talking about the real thing and a real person, one who I had the pleasure to meet years ago in his studio in Amsterdam, and i will never forgot his views on life and his portfolio.

Max Dereta is a world traveller, an adventurer, an extremely gifted designer and photographer, a sky diver, and one of the first who got an idea to attach his camera on a helmet, and one who saw the entire world from above. Jumping and photographing his whole life long from the sky and below (on the earth) too.

Max work's quality is recognised by many, his work is to be seen in films, books and magazines which are full of piles and piles of his work which were also published world wide in Air and Space, Cosmopolitan, Esquire, Focus, Holland Herald, Hors Ligne, Playboy, Penthouse, Seasons, Stern, Traveler and National Geographic.

The last article I came across was published in the Dutch/Belgian section of the National Geographic, where one could see stunning photos of the Croatian coast.
