Marc Adamus is a landscape photographer based in Corvallis, Oregon. The visual drama and artistry of his photographs are born of a keen eye for the many moods of Nature and a life-long passion for the wilderness. This passion shines throughout Marc’s work and has attracted a wide audience around the world.
I am very pleased that Marc gave us permission to show his photos on here — thank you very much Marc. It’s the way he plays with light in the photos that give them that certain something, obviously influenced by the perfect locations and Marc’s ability to convert this combination into an image at the vital moment. You can sense his love of nature and the wilderness, as he expresses it, his creativity in the implementation of his emotions, his passion and feelings; all this is reflected in his images and translates into something really special, allowing us to share in the beauty and reminding us over and over how unique and breathtaking nature can be.  A visit to his homepage is a special experience.

“I believe the most important quality of a photograph, as in all of art, is to evoke an emotional response. While everything in nature does this for me, selecting just the right places and moments to make a photograph that conveys those emotions is far more difficult. My camera is one of the tools I use to achieve my final results, the images you see here. No one tool is perfect, however, and no one tool can make a great artist. My processes involve meticulous attention to detail in my field technique, along with work in today’s digital darkroom to fine tune, optimize and adjust contrasts, colors, tonalities, luminosity, etc. in an attempt to better present to you the experience I felt in being there myself.”
