I enjoy photographing nature/wildlife mostly because they do not freak-out when I point a giant lens at them. Moving into more people stuff (Those who are not shy and self-conscious). I like sponteneity and balance in my photos with as much natural light as possible. Do not really enjoy setting-up shots, posing, etc. Never comes out natural and fluid. With wildlife photography, I will literaly sit and wait for the right moment to present itself.
I mostly take photos for my own personal amusement but do use them in my graphic design work and have sold a few pieces. Would love to be able to do it on a more professional level (wouldn't we all) as I get better. Still learning the ropes. Mostly self-taught, I find its the best way for me to learn; through experimentation and analysis.
I found that the best photos are the ones I never meant to take. Never leave home without my camera. Always have one eye on the horizon for the next shot.

    "I've been in and out of RoninRtist's gallery for sometimes now. I have to say, he has some of the most realistic nature shots around. Like the motto he follows, nothing pretentious. He kept his shots undisturbed of how nature is suppose to be seen by our eyes. Like he said, rather setup, he would choose to wait for the moment because the nature do not come to us, we reach out to them. Keep up the good works RoninRtist!"

    "RoninRtist's photographs are some of the best I've seen. His photos are always so sharp and have so much detail, color, and feel. It's art! His photos capture the beauty of such magnificent creatures, definitely some of the best pictures I've seen on Flickr, just simply amazing.

    Keep up the good work!"
