My name is Robert Ortega and I am a nature photographer
Robert Ortega is a nature photographer based in Santa Monica, California. Robert’s focus is single physical beings, such as an animal or a flower. Because each photo is of one single item, the visual focus is the item’s composition.
His photographs of animals center around the materials colors, and textures that the animal is composed of. Photographs of flowers emphasize their physical structure, colors, and positioning.
Robert travels around the world to specific countries whose ecosystems he wants to explore and photograph.
The world of fluttering birds always fascinated me. This project explores the fascinating life, color, and behaviors of winged creatures of the Amazonas.
The structural intricacies of flowers is a fascinating project. The photos demonstrate the amazing structure of flowers and how complex are them.
