Title

Nature Photography from the Pacific Northwest and beyond by Bob Johnson @ Earthbound Light

Description

The roots of both my interest in nature and in photography started early in life. My family moved around a lot, which turned out to be both a good thing and a bad one. While it was disruptive, it did afford us the opportunity to take some extended family vacations on our travels. We went camping most summers as well, but when we moved, we really got to do some traveling, visiting national parks and other attractions along the way. It also meant lots of family vacation photos, which as it turns out, was also both a good thing and a bad thing. While I did get somewhat tired of posing in front of everything, it was my first introduction to photography. It wasn't until later on that the creative possibilities of photography opened up for me, but I had to start somewhere.

The first three cameras I owned all came from various contests at some of my early jobs. With three in a row, I figure my fate was forced upon me. The first two, a pocket instamatic and a Polaroid camera never did interest me that much since there didn't seem to be that much you could do with them. The third one, however, was a 35mm SLR. When I added a couple of zoom lenses, I was hooked, and I've been at it ever since.

I am a longstanding member of NANPA, the North American Nature Photography Association, as well as the Seattle Mountaineers and the Nature Photographers of the Pacific Northwest.
