Random Photos by Bob Burkett

It was around four years ago I first discovered photography. Documenting moments and objects in the world around me took on a whole new fascination. Below are some shots I enjoyed taking. Feel free to leave a comment at the bottom of the gallery if you like. I thank you for stopping by.

Hello, I am curious of the modern day druids shots. What are they from, could you give me for information? It is for a research project I am doing for a book publishing. Email me back at jamesrsomers@verizon.net. Thank you.

My fave? Well, the "pool boy/grandma" shot . . . and then there's the "Kama Sutra shot," and of course the blurred "scallions" shot (yes, I know they're not really scallions), but the "Order Among Chaos" is sublime. Keep 'em coming, Bob! -- Carol Leigh

When I first looked at this gallery, I said to myself “Wow, this photographer is a fine artist!” Bob makes regular subjects look “untypical”, pleasing, colorful and fresh. This gallery draws me in and I am looking forward to seeing more images.

God bless you and your family. - Anita Curry

Karen, no I'm not the same Bob Burkett, I wish I had that talent. However I do know who you are talking about. A Google search should give you more info on him.
