FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER: William Ronald Ross II

February 4 – 24, 2010

Greetings. My name is William Ronald Ross II. I was born and reared in Salt
Lake City, Utah, but currently reside in Louisville, Kentucky with my lovely
wife and two very happy children.

In my late twenties, I took a ten-day vacation with my father to Thailand,
where he handed me his camera and said, “You take the photos”, and so it
began.

My first camera was a Ricoh 35mm. I moved on to a Nikon 35mm and today, I
proudly use an older Nikon D50 DSLR but should now be paid for my
endorsement, by Nikon, with a D300s or D3s.

I’ve always been involved in art, even when my job title said otherwise. As
a gyroscopic technician, I was given the delicious task of disassembling
delicate aircraft components and sketching every finite detail for later
reassembly. What I gained from that experience was, cliché as it sounds,
seeing beyond each layer as it unfolds. As a result, I’m a self-employed
patent illustrator and photographer. It’s my job to see beyond what is in
front of me, to capture how things work and envision and convey that result.
