Artist Statement:
Life is precious; a series of
events. Steve Lambert feels
his photography is a way he
can express the wonder and
beauty of the natural world.
Steve's digital photography
is a combination of nature and
wildlife, with traces of
architecture. His camera
captures the beauty of the
life around him, as well as
the ecosystems that animals
call their habitat. He likes
to point his audience to the
play of sunlight and shade on
the trees, leaves, and
blossoms. His camera captures
patterns in nature, as well as
its chaos. His technique
includes use of vanishing
point, backlighting of special
subjects such as blossoms,
macrophotography,
sillhoetting, and controlling
depth of field. He has done
studies on water in nature,
waterfowl, wildflowers,
insects, serene places in
nature, and patterns in
nature. He has exhibited at
local venues, including the
Becker Gallery in Westerville,
Ohio....

Hiking and skinning my knees on slippery rocks in the middle of streams is up at the top of my list of things I do. I love woodwork, traveling to new places, building houses of sustainable and green value. Of course, photography is at the top of my list. |

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I believe I became an artist as a form of storytelling; of letting an image tell a story without having to say anything. My art is about seeing the unique, the essence or spirit of a subject. It is always art for art's sake. |

| Your Personal Biography |
Photography has been an integral part of my growing up. In high school, I was lucky enough to have a boss at our local public library that had a passion for photography. I would practice on other people's SLRs, until my graduation, when I got my first Nikon F series SLR. I was fortunate to be surrounded by books on nature photography, so I practiced. The cost of film and developing almost discouraged me from maturing in this art, especially when in college.
Digital Photography has been a freeing force for me in many ways. It is not unusual for me to take a thousand pictures on my digital in a three day period, as I walk through the local metro parks/woods/college campus/etc. I am always noticing something new, and I like to practice capturing the essence of it.
I love to combine this passion for photography with my interest in responsible ecology, hoping my art will encourage responsible stewardship of our natural habitats. I believe I can make a difference locally by treading lighter on the earth....maybe not using as much fossil fuel...and learning better forestry management techniques/sustainable building practices.
I like to use light and depth of field practices to define my subjects. I occasionally use human subjects for social commentary/symbolism, but most of the time it is nature and wildlife. Thank-you for taking the time to view my art.
