John Pezzenti

1. John Pezzenti • Born- Newington, Connecticut June 12,1952- December 3,2007 • John Pezzenti was a wild life photographer; some of his work was seen in the oval office, while Ronald Reagan was president. • He also had his work published in many magazines, such as National Geographic, Alaska Magazine, Readers Digest, and Natural History.

2. John Pezzenti’s style of wildlife photography is about capturing the beauty of animals. • I cannot find where he went to college or any of his influences, I’ve looked everywhere on google. He is now deceased, and there is not much information on him. • When he died, he died from being murdered. He was found shot to death inside of his own home, in anchorage, Alaska. Police still havent found any motives or suspects to this. On the radio and tv, Americas most wanted may have found somebody to descript his murderer. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Pezzenti

4. Polarbear- By John Pezzenti -this photo has natural lighting because it is outside; It looks like the lighting is straight on the polar bear,around the middle of the day. The main subject of this photo is this polar bear!He is the only subject in this photograph. I think this photo is very striking because he is so close to the polar bear, his face is in total detail, and snow is on his snout! I picked the polar bear because I think they are so cute! http://www.picturestore.com.au/product.aspx?productID=17251 Timberwolf- By John Pezzenti -This photo also has natural lighting; The snow is reflecting the light, Its cool filter, not warm. The wolf is the main subject of this photo, because that is what you are looking at. This photo is absolutely striking because the wolf is a majestic animal. Its fur has many different textures to it, and color tones. I picked this wolf because wolves are leaders  http://www.posters-n-prints.com/photography/

6. Grizzly Bear- By John Pezzenti This is very much natural lighting. The light is coming from behind the bear a little to the right, highlighting him. The bear and his leaves are the main subject of this picture. The rest is blurred out so you don’t get distracted by it. This photo is striking, because it feels like the bear is looking right at you! It also shows a lot of textures in his fur. I think this photo is pretty cool, that is why I picked it  http://www.postersofanimals.com/TOPICS/topic_Bear_Posters/Pictures_and_Posters_of_Grizzly_Bears-0308-0514-5050-poa.html Timberwolf in trees- By John Pezzenti I do not see any specific angle the light is coming from, but it is natural lighting. The wolf is the main subject, because he is the most important in this picture. The trees add to it though, because you know where he is. This photo is beautiful! The wolves eyes are orange and that just sticks out. All of the colors are vibrant! I thought this picture was very pretty. http://www.postersofanimals.com/TOPICS/topic_Wolf_Posters/Timber_Wolf_Posters-0307-3008-4709-poa.html
