Canadian Rocky Mountain Landscapes – LIVE Preview one on your Wall

Is there still a demand for Landscape Photography? Yes, there is, and thankfully so! For me the Canadian Rocky Mountain Landscape, especially in Banff National Park is my “studio” and the images I capture in this stunning landscape, I hope, and I still find, can resonate with clients for home, office, and public space decor. A bit further down I explain how you can get a LIVE PREVIEW of any landscape image from my website, on your home or office wall!

The demand list for Photography, as found on Google – states Portrait as #1, then Real Estate, Wedding, Family and Newborn, and Product, as the top 5 before Nature and Wildlife enter the list. As a Canadian Landscape Photographer, I hope my images will “move the needle” for Canadian Rockies Art and Banff National Park landscape photography. Ansel Adams is known as the father of landscape photography and was a pioneer for the genre. His work decorates many wall spaces, not just his, but many other landscape photographers works are decorating home and office walls to add spice to the spaces where they hang.

Landscape photography, indeed landscapes pictures of the Canadian Rockies are extremely popular as images for sale in Photo galleries. Landscapes have long been favored as the genre to decorate homes, offices, and Public Spaces. I feature Canadian Landscape Photography and my website – www.gitaphotos.com – with 9 Galleries dedicated to Banff and Canadian Landscape Mountain Photography for you to employ as you decorate your wall space.

Some tips to use when decorating with Landscape Images:

  1. Choose an image that “speaks” to you _ an emotional connection (what you saw and felt when in Banff)
  2. Consider the colours and make-up of your room
  3. Select an Image size that will work in and complement your room
  4. Locate the image, if possible, to get natural light on it ( or install proper lighting to highlight the image – think of special spotlights and bulbs )

“Special Moments in the Rockies, Captured in a Print Forever”

Gita Photos is a Landscape Photography Studio based in Banff, Alberta and Banff National Park a World Heritage Site. Hi, my name is Ron Hallam. I am truly blessed to be able to live in and work in this stunning location; Banff, Alberta. I closed in and renovated the deck of my condo to be an editing studio. The studio is paneled in Alberta cedar. The main part of the ‘studio’, though, is the Banff National Park and the Canadian Rockies! My work invloves hiking through the Park to find locations where the natural wonders of the Rockies are illuminated by the natural light of the moment. As one client testimonial put it, I want to offer you “ an instant escape to someplace magical” ( Jane Fedosoff, Toronto, Ontario) Another client commented “Ron's photographs are not just beautiful images of the Canadian Rockies. They are Ron himself – his life experiences, his love for this place and his eye for detail- that show a depth and unique understanding of this special place we are lucky to call home.” (Phil Monod, Banff Alberta) I’m in the second half of my life. I spent the first half running a ski shop and skiing and hiking in and around Banff National Park. I tinkered with photography for a long time - first with disposable cameras in the 70's. Needless to say the disposable left everything to be desired and I walked away wanting more, much more. Then, for one special hiking trip to Nepal, I purchased a proper SLR camera. The SLR provided better images, but I still needed time to learn and study and work at the craft of image making and film processing. Meanwhile, the time commitment necessary to run a shop (and my shop was a passion) meant work gave me limited spare time. That translated into playing when I could, took precedence over study of camera, technique and processing. So, upon retiring - for my second half, I wanted to stretch and work my “creative muscles”. I got down to focused and dedicated photographic endeavor. That started with a new DSLR. Then I began to study image making seriously. I learned about the digital way of image capture and developing (editing). The Rockies Landscape is so grand that larger Panorama shots are a favorite for me to create while, but as you can see from my work, everything in this magnificent place draws me to capture images of all kinds of landscapes. I like to work in both Color and Black and White and would love to hear which you prefer as your format of choice, and why. Every time I make an image, it is the direct result of letting the “something” inside me come up to the surface, and compel me to record that moment of what I’m seeing and feeling. I want to engage you to see the Rockies, and feel the Rockies exactly the way I do. I want to try to have you try to understand and engage with my perspective, and point you to the exquisite, intricate and profoundly intelligent designer - the God who created this natural world. Then, if you are awed by creation but also perturbed by economic disparities in the world, I hope you will browse the Art Battling Poverty Gallery dedicated to Poverty Relief and assistance for the marginalized. While you and I enjoy the beauty of the Rockies, many are struggling simply to survive. When you purchase my Art from the Art Battling Poverty Gallery (or indeed any image purchase) just tell me to donate to either of the NGO's I work with, at time of checkout. A portion of each sale, 15% – read the ABOUT Art Battling Poverty Tab) will be donated to in your name. Have a browse and find “ A special moment in the Rockies, captured in a print forever”. And when you purchase you won't only have a special print, but you will also be giving Hope to the marginalized.
