capturing the gaze

I began my journey into photography at 15 with my father's Argus film camera, which had a viewfinder separate from the lens. With a darkroom set up in the basement, I developed a deep passion for photography. Over 50 years later, even with more modern equipment, the thrill of capturing moments remains, especially in wildlife photography,  I still experience that excitement when an image emerges in a digital 'developer tray.' If you share this love for wildlife photography, you can buy nature photography that embodies this timeless experience through Rob Storrs Photography.

As a nature photographer, I have successfully sold my images through private showings, public contests, and camera clubs, including my brand, Rob Storrs Photography. I take pride in winning several awards in competitions, and during the summer of 2023, my wildlife photography was showcased with The Carolina Nature Photographers Association at The Cradle of Forestry near Brevard, NC. Many visitors expressed interest in my nature photography and in learning how to buy nature photography from me.

Henri Cartier-Bresson sought to "capture the eternity of a gaze in the blink of an eye," a connection shared between the photographer and their subject. In that instant, who becomes the true observer and who is being observed? Inspired by Jean-Claude Monet's paintings, I learned to view the world through the lens as splotches of color and geometric shapes, pushing beyond them to reach ABSTRACTION — to uncover something yet unseen. If you're interested in buying nature photography that reflects this idea, be sure to check out the incredible work of Rob Storrs Photography, especially his stunning wildlife photography, which beautifully captures these fleeting moments.
