MY FAVORITES BY RONNIE GAUBERT

This is a gallery of some of my favorite images. The selection is not based on number of views but on my personal likes. Look here: http://www.pbase.com/ronnie_14187/d100_viewers_favorites for the gallery of images that are popular with the members of pbase. Based on images with 2500+ views. All images taken with a Nikon D100 or D200 DSLR camera. Lens used were: Nikon 24-120mm Non-VR, Nikon 80-200mm ED-IF AF-S, Nikon 105mm Mircro Nikkor, Nikon 300mm f/4d ED-IF AF-S, Nikon 400mm f/2.8d ED-IF AF-I, Nikon 500mm f/4g ED-IF AF-S VRII & Nikon 12-24mm f/4g. A tripod or window mount was used for every image, no exceptions. As a personal preference, all shots of animals were taken in a wild environment, no zoos or butterfly houses. Although some of these images were taken in my many gardens, I still will refer to these as taken in the wild as no cages, traps, etc. were used. All specimens were alive and free to move around as they pleased.

Please view at ORIGINAL size, thanks.

Great photos. I have seen your work on DP Review and because of that my next lens is going to be the 300 f4.

Chris Spence		08-Jun-2009 01:01
Fantastic Pictures your site helped me indentify a butterfly i seen today around my home it was a Swallowtail butterfly thanks for some great pics of my new home for the past 3 years since moving to Louisiana from Leeds England UK Great work! :)

Marcie B.		22-May-2009 02:15
Beautiful work Mr. Ronnie. I found your site b/c I needed to identify a moth that I saw In the Lower Garden District in New Orleans this morning. It took me over an hour of on-line searching to figure out that I had seen a scarlet-bodied wasp moth. Your website helped me to finally nail the I.D. I've lived here 8 years and had never seen one of these little guys before. Finally I have proof of the beautiful creature I found...my friends all thought I was nuts when I described the moth to them When you're next in NOLA, please stop by Surrey's Cafe @ 1418 Magazine, introduce yourself and let me buy you a fesh-squeezed juice (I'm there Thur-Mon). Best, Marcie B.

Fantastic! You are one of my favourites! In Italy a lot of nature photographers know and love your pics! Ciao

CHEN Chung-yu		09-Jun-2008 23:52
Your photos are fantastic!!! You have classified them in various categories; I was wondering if there could be a category of 'new additions' for the current year? (Perhaps arranged by the month?) This way your admirers could visit your site every month to look at new photos. Thank you for the wonderful work and the generosity in showing your work intact (i.e. not tarnishing the beautiful scenes by putting your name on the photos, like many artists do).

All of these are so sharp and clear, the composition and backgrounds are simple and without clutter. You certainly have the lenses and equipment but the most important, the eye. Beautiful wildlife photos.

Very impressive job ! These views are amazing... What can I say more ? Just thanks ... zian [ My Pbase galleries ]

Charles Alexander		09-Jun-2005 08:28
Absolutely amazing shots. I especially like your nature close-ups -- we have many of the same creatures and plants here in Texas -- you must have an amazing home to have so many camera-friendly animals and in such vivid natural settings. Wonderful job!

Stan B.		03-Jun-2005 12:57
You are very talented! I have a great equipment, but it does not make me a great photographer. You, on the other hand, can say so.

Barb		01-Jun-2005 16:10
Wonderful photos! Brought cheer to my day. A friend sent these from Arkansas to Wyoming where I live! Love the "bugs"!

Greg Jenkins		27-Apr-2005 03:20
I look through your images, one after another, mesmorized, unable to pull myself away. The photographic quality is the best that I have ever seen. And your compositions are very good as well. Truly great work, Ronnie, I love it!

Tam		24-Apr-2005 00:57
This is a superb showcase of your work, Ronnie.

Bill Sturrock		07-Apr-2005 16:50

All I can say is "WOW!". Thanks for sharing.

Geoff		04-Apr-2005 11:57
The only problem with this gallery is that I have spent ages looking at every picture, once you start you can't stop. Great work

Dan		04-Apr-2005 03:32
Excellent work. Simply excellent.

Eldar Kadymov		03-Apr-2005 14:28

Guest		02-Apr-2005 05:04
Great Gallery, you have my vote!

Okie		02-Apr-2005 01:51
You say you're an "amateur," but you're better than most professionals I know. You need to submit some of your photos to publications.

Guest		02-Apr-2005 01:18
WOW!!! What a beautiful gallery!

r		01-Apr-2005 18:59
Wonderful photos; you particularly captured the beauty of natures small critters in a most fantastic way

Amihay Shraga		01-Apr-2005 18:45
Great work Ronnie! Well done! Amihay

Jakub Wronski		01-Apr-2005 16:13
I'm speechless... STUNNING!!!

Paul Riley		01-Apr-2005 14:40
Not only a wonderful gallery but you have names for almost all of the subjects. Most people just say snake, frog, spider or fly on wildflower - oops sorry you have that one. That is one of the few without a name or two. Well done. Regards Paul

Wm. Bates		01-Apr-2005 14:38
It's easy to see why these images are your favorites! I enjoyed them very much. Thank you for sharing. I especially enjoyed the bugs and critters. Wanda

Guest		31-Mar-2005 20:31
Great pictures, very nice galery. Excellent work.

Guest		31-Mar-2005 14:58
amazing pictures!!! im happy that i got a chance to see these cool photos. really good.

Guy Schmickle		31-Mar-2005 14:46
A terrific gallery, Ronnie. Wonderful colors and a great variety of shots. I can definitely see why these are your favorites. These really make me want to spend some time down in the Lake Martin area! -Guy

mike		31-Mar-2005 12:54
one great shot after another... amazing gallery...

Greg		31-Mar-2005 04:59
Unbelievable! I'm speachless. Absolutly amazing!

Pramod Kumar		31-Mar-2005 00:16
Absolute wonderful pictures. Excellent Eye. Keep up the good work.

Retha		29-Mar-2005 05:23
Breathtaking shots. You mention in your profile that you are an "amateur" photographer. That must mean that you have an amazingly satisfying "real" job. Or are you just too modest? Why doesn't National Geographic know about you? Work of this quality should be shared with the world. Thank you for the opportunity to see it. I'll be back :)

Tim Rucci		28-Mar-2005 01:12
Wow, Ronnie! This collection is superb. I can't say enough about the color and clarity that I consistently see in all the images. I am curious how you are getting so much depth of field in these shots with a 300mm f4 and extension tubes. I would love to be able to see the exif data and know the aperture settings on some of these. Wonderful work! My compliments..... (and yes, if you ever do a workshop, let me know too) Tim

Jim		27-Mar-2005 16:07
WOW, great gallery.

John Carman		27-Mar-2005 16:00
Absolutely amazing!!!!!!! Makes me consider selling my camera and taking up something else. I’ll snap out of it in a minute! Still just looking at your images and shaking my head for now. jc

dazedgonebye		27-Mar-2005 14:59
Overwhelming. I agree that you should offer a workshop.

David Kusner		27-Mar-2005 14:41
I think you've gotten your money's worth from that 300mm. :) Incredible gallery!

Gus Rosenfeld		27-Mar-2005 10:35
Yeah, it's a bit difficult, even with pbase jaded eyes, to say much. The fact that you said it was NOT based on hits but on your personal favorites, belies no thirst for flattery. However, it is odd when one views something and, even in solace, they intrinsically feel their sense of speech impeded. If you ever do a workshop . . . ;-)

Olivier Seydoux		26-Mar-2005 00:55
No words, look in silence is enough ! Congratulations.

Guest		25-Mar-2005 08:50
Very beautiful pictures!

James		23-Mar-2005 02:58
