Ron Dudley's Avian Images

My photography is devoted almost exclusively to birds, with a sharp focus on raptors. Most of my images were taken in the intermountain west, particularly Utah and Montana.

I have strong opinions about the ethics of bird photography. I don't shoot setups, call birds in electronically or otherwise and I never bait my subjects. I try to avoid any significant disturbance of birds especially when they're nesting.

My goal is to present my subjects as I saw them when I took the photo so I keep colors natural with little or no saturation/contrast added during processing and I keep cloning to an absolute minimum. Typically my processing work flow includes only cropping and sharpening.

I hope you enjoy browsing through some of my images.
