Wildlife photography is the perfect blend of art, technology, and adventure.  It embodies what he learned about art and storytelling along with the technical skills he had developed in computer animation. And it has led him to the “great outdoors” exploring parks and nature reserves locally and across the country. Ron is never one to pass up the opportunity of a still portrait, but what he enjoys most is shooting action; thousands of migrating geese blasting off a pond, moose shaking off a morning snow, a herd of bison ambling though the mist ... It’s challenging. It’s exciting.
Stylistically? – Ron believes sharp focus is highly overrated. He prefers images to have a loose, painterly quality – elements of soft focus, blur, grain, bokeh; artistic attributes that he feels can best capture the energy of a scene.  Even with a still, the painterly approach can warm a frozen pose and create more idyllic imagery.
Aside from trying to do no harm out there, a self-imposed guideline is to not misrepresent events.  As an artist, he will make visual enhancements to create the most impactful image possible, but he never changes the record of what actually happened. The beauty and the stories are real.
