🪖U.S. Hi, I am Dale Ranney, and I’ve been creating photographs for nearly 50 years.

www.daleranneyphotography.com From the early days of manual cameras and darkrooms to today’s digital tools, my passion has remained the same—capturing the world as I see and feel it in the moment. I first fell in love with photography as a kid, saving up my newspaper route money to buy a Nikon D

SLR. After years of photo classes in high school, I joined the U.S. Navy and served as a photographer aboard the USS Enterprise. That experience deepened both my technical skills and my love for adventure. These days, I focus on nature and wildlife, sharing my experiences through images that are honest and true to the moment. I consider myself an old-school photographer—not a digital artist—and I find the most joy hiking through the wild, camera in hand, capturing what inspires me.

Agree/Disagree? Not everything needs to be optimized.

That’s usually where the best decisions come from anyway, not overthinking, just recognizing what feels right.

Some things can just exist because you like them.

Because they make a moment feel a little better, or a day feel a little lighter.

Choose "Sunset Swan Front" because you connect to it, and that's enough.

Travel changes how you see things.

You notice details, textures, moments you would usually overlook. Bringing something like “Golden Cathedral aglow” into your home can recreate that sense of attention.

What’s something you’ve noticed more deeply while traveling that you wish you could bring home with you?

Choosing work like “Wolf Creek Falling” does more than shape your space.

It supports an independent artist and keeps original work circulating in the world instead of getting lost in mass production.

When you bring something like this into your home, you’re part of that story.

If you had to describe the feeling of “Letchworths Sunrise Window” using just one emoji, what would it be?

It’s a simple way to notice your instinctive reaction before you overthink it.

Happy Emoji Day, by the way. ✌️🫰

Jack Aces 3 plane team of P-51 Mustangs puts on a great show at the Geneseo Airshow or “The Greatest Show On Turf” as we like to call it. One of the performers I always look forward to seeing as the beautiful aircraft expertly carve up the sky. daleranneyphotography.com
