Hi,
I am Ron van Elst, age 36, amateur-photographer.
I live in the Netherlands in Europe and I started photographing nature from
the age of 15. I have always loved scenic photography, allthough birds also
have a special place in my heart. I had the opportunity to visit the US
twice ('94 and '98) and Canada in the year 2000. Some places that stole my
heart are Yellowstone national park and the Canadian rocky mountains,
especially the area around Jasper. Nature Photography for me is a way to
relax and get away from everyday life. I work as a network/systems engineer at a large
health-insurance company. That means: long hours behind a computerscreen at
my desk or in the airconditioned environment of the server-room.
On my day off you can often find me in the fields with my camera looking for
that 'special' shot. For me a great way to relax..!
This year, on March 8th, my photo-entrance
to the Kodak Photo Quilt website made it 'Kodak Picture of the Day'. Not
only was the photo shown on Kodak's mainpage for a day, but the winning
photo was also shown on a big screen at the Times Square photo-gallery every 5 minutes.
Thanks for taking the time to visit this website and I hope you will have as
much pleasure looking at it, as I had taking the pictures.
For those interested, here's a list of my current
photo-equipment.
