Bob Ellis Photography



I am a part-time professional photographer. I love landscape, seascape and wildlife photography. This has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember, and will be for as long as I can click the shutter. I try to photograph an image and present it as close to reality as possible. However, I realize that a camera doesn't necessarily project the image as the eye sees it. With today's technology, I am able to adjust a photographic image to what I saw while taking the photograph. That's not to say I don't work sometimes in a more abstract or "artistic" direction. Some may call me a photographic artist. That is what I am.

April's Surprises

WOW!  Where do I begin?  April turned out to be a great month for photography.  I've been told by many, that I should take the photos that I have and start selling them.  Another words, start making a profit in my business.  I have to agree, but I love the picture taking end of it.  And, this month is a good reason why.  Diane and I had a wonderful time in Oregon last weekend, and I photographed many of those wonderful moments to share.  I don't know if I should post them all, or a few at a time.  We also took a couple of other short trips this month and there are lots of images to share.  Soooooooo...I guess I will share a few at a time.  And, I think I will mix them up.  So sit back and enjoy!

Lets start with one of the last pictures I took this month.  Diane an I really enjoy this waterfall and this visit I was able to get the whole image.  Of course, I had a wide angle lens this time.  This is Multnomah Falls  in the Colombian River Gorge area of Oregon, and it was a wonderful site.


"Multnomah Falls"

The next image was taken in the Hidden Falls area, just east of Auburn, CA.  This tiny little flower is beautiful and most likely overlook when walking in the foothills of California.  


"White Globe Lily"

I guess I should show you the falls.  I really didn't like the results, but the falls were beautiful.  I will make the hike again and see if I can get a better picture.

This next image was taken on a short drive to the Consumnes Wildlife Area.  It was slow day, but had some wonderful flowering areas.
 

"Wild Garden"

There are so many more and I will post them through the month of May.  Enjoy!
