Christian J. Stewart

Born in Rockford, Illinois, I spent much of my early childhood exploring the beaches of Lake Michigan and the backwoods of northern Indiana. After moving to Canada in 1972, I went on to complete a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in physical geography and geology, from which I gained an appreciation and understanding of the diverse physical features and cultures found in the world an appreciation that is reflected in many of my images. Extensive opportunities for travel throughout Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean and Europe have provided me with a variety of subject matter over the years.

I truly believe that the difference between a "nice" photo and a truly great photo, is first, seeing what everybody sees, but then having the ability to see what others do not. With this in mind, I try to look for the "detail" in a scene, or else concentrate on other aspects such as dramatic color, texture, composition or lighting. The right combination of these factors, result, I hope, in images that provide unique and unusual perspectives on otherwise ordinary subjects.

Technically, my images are rather simple. I do not use filters of any kind, instead relying on natural and ambient light and composition to "make the scene." Occasionally, in the process of scanning a slide or a negative, I will make slight adjustments to adjust for contrast or brightness, but generally, what you see in the image, is what I saw through the viewfinder when taking the photograph.

I have been fortunate enough to have my work showcased at a number of venues. This included an exhibition entitled "Arizona Abstract" at the Cornwall, Ontario Regional Art Gallery, which featured a number of abstract architectural and landscape images, as well as the rt and the Environmentexhibition hosted by Environment Canada in Burlington, Ontario, featuring a number of landscape and scenic images. My photos have been published in the McMaster University Silhouette Newspaper, the 1983-1984 McMaster Yearbook, the Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar, Canadian Yachting Magazine, the Saanich News, and a number of scientific journals and professional publications. My work also resides in private collections throughout North America, Australia, Germany, Greece and the UK.

I reside, with my wife and two sons, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
