Photographer
Don Corby : has
been a photographer since high school. He
became interested in capturing the wonder of nature and the intricacies
of botanicals while working in a Weston, Ontario
camera shop to pay his
way to an engineering degree.
He enjoys landscapes and close-up botanicals, and captures the
character of the places he visits. Trips to Yosemite, Hawaii,
Britain and the Canadian Provinces have added to his portfolio, but he
also enjoys photographing parks, conservation and rural areas around
the Niagara escarpment. You will also find Don shooting images of his
rural property, wandering around the wildflower and native plant
gardens, rose gardens, perennial beds, water garden and natural meadow.
Although experimenting with various photographic techniques, Don enjoys
the challenge of capturing nature without contrivance. His photographs
represent exactly what the camera (and Don) saw when the shutter was
released. Using a Nikon F2 with a 200mm micro lens, Don takes most of
his pictures in the early morning when the light is just right, the dew
is on the plants and the air is still and fresh.
