Milse has travelled to many regions in every corner of the world where he photographed some of the most colourful and iconic species in their natural habitat.

His love for these magnificent, beautiful, charismatic, and last of their kind animals is what drives his photographic passion to capture these endangered species. His strong focus on conservation, lead him to collaborations with some of the world’s leading conservation organizations. The projects he supports include the Tiger protection project, the Global Arctic program/Polar World and the Snow Leopard Protection in Mongolia in collaboration with the WWF, as well as the Turtles and Lemur (LemurLove) projects in the Amazon Jungle and Madagascar.

In his book ‚Survivor‘ he portraits the uniqueness of our wilderness – nature’s treasures that need to be protected and preserved. The title ‚Survivor‘ was chosen deliberately, to bring awareness how the future of many animals and plants hangs by a thread. From lemurs to rhinos, from gorillas to polar bears – these extraordinary creatures are often true survivors. But there are limits to their ability to adapt to an ever changing environment. In his work, Milse repeatedly bears witness to one of the greatest tragedies of our time: the loss of biodiversity. With his expressive and breath taking images, he wants to show and bring an awareness to the fragile habitats in which the ‘survivors’ live and where they have found their niches in the ecosystem.
