Garry Schlatter – Australian Photographer – Inspiration


Notice: Undefined variable: read_more in /home/scottp12/public_html/wp-content/themes/traction/archive.php on line 34

Garry Schlatter has given me great ideas for composition and lighting when taking landscape photographs, so I thought it would be great to showcase his talent to even more people and provide quality inspiration.

Garry’s words, from his site:

“Passionate Amateur Photographer. Photography is a visual language. It can touch and stimulate our deepest emotions. The beauty of creation and nature invokes such a curiosity in me, I can’t help but explore new and exciting places to capture those moments of unimaginable perfection. “We do not take pictures with our cameras, but with our hearts and minds” – Arnold Newman”
