Ron Pederson is an artist, a woodworker and has been an avid digital photographer for about 2-years. He lives with his wife, off-the-grid, in the northern Adirondack mountains adjacent to thousands of acres of forever wild forest preserve.
He started with photography back in the early 70's shooting mostly B&W 35mm images and also color slides - doing the darkroom work himself. Distracted by earning a living and other pursuits for nearly 30 years, he didn't return to more serious photo work until 2009 when he went digital.
He holds BA and MFA degrees in fine art, worked as a college art imstructor, an illustrator, an architectual draftsman and engineering draftsman before working in the aerospace industry for 25 years.
The majority of his photographic images are taken on his own property, or within 15 miles of his home in the forest. In the last 2 years his work has been juried into regional, national and international photography and art exhibitions/competitions.
