African Girl Look Its the Future
"African Girl Look Its Your Future" Photographed by Ron Foster in Cape Coast, Ghana
African Girl Look Its Your Future
While Photographing the governor's room at the slave castle located in Cape Coast, Ghana, a young girl excitedly runs to the window. Her small frame body standing in front of the large old rustic window grabbed my attention. The light rays so bright shining in from the outdoors was such a brilliant sight. It casted upon her in such a special way. The moment had to be captured. I thought to myself, she looks like she is starring into her future. I then snapped the photograph. Of all the photos I have taken, this one still holds a special place with me.
I want to dedicate this photograph to the many young girls and women around the world who aspire to do great things in service and in deed for humanity sake. The white space outside this window is like a blank canvas for you to create the dreams you desire.
The future is yours. Be bold and be strong. Never stop dreaming or pursuing the dream within your heart.

The Gentle Giant
I never get tired of photographing these marvelous creatures. The elephants are the gentle giants of our world. They move with such grace and strength. Yet, they are so playful and child like. I remember just staring and watching with anticipation for the elephants next move. They truly rule their surroundings. It was a pure blissful moment when I captured this beautiful black and white photograph. The contrast of the dark gray textured skin of the elephant and the white background make a good composition.

Leopard Waiting Standing Strong
Looking for his mate, the leopard stands erect listening for the sounds of her approach. The sun is beginning to set. He stands in the shaded area of the brush. The light shines upon him through the trees. It's a glorious sighting and a moment worthy of photographing. Looking majestic as the sun shines upon him. What a beautiful captured moment.

Wildebeest Grazing
A hot morning in the bush, we drive across the grasslands. On a hill not so far away a herd of wildebeest gathered to graze with their young. The scene was beautiful and peaceful.

Brooklyn Bridge Sunset Reflection
It's iconic, a landmark and it is absolutely beautiful. The Brooklyn Bridge is not just an East River crossing between Brooklyn and Manhattan. It is one of the city's life centers.

Angola Strike
Standing on the edge of the Okavango River in Botswana and Angola on the other side, I witnessed a storm approaching. Sun shining and dark clouds arriving, what a dramatic scene. Then the lightning began to strike.

Oh What a Web...
While on location in a Montréal alley way photographing a client, I stumbled upon this spider web shining and reflecting the evening sun rays. An image popped in my head of what this would look like captured in a photograph. I shot it and I was pleased. Something so simple can have such beauty.

One of my favorite bridges in New York City would be the Art Deco influenced designed Manhattan Bridge. So many hidden treasures are incorporated in this lovely East River Crossing. I took this beautiful photo during one of my city walks.

Graffiti Blues
An evening walk during the "blue-hour", you know that magical hour after the sunsets, the sky takes on those lovely shades of blue. I walked across the Manhattan Bridge located in New York City with my camera in hand as usual. The bright colors of the graffiti and the blue background of the bridge made a beautiful scene for a still portrait.

City Dusk and Light
It's a beautiful evening as dusk transitions into night. The city lights began to shine across the metropolitan cityscape. An intentional slowing of my shutter speed on my camera created glowing streaks along the traffic-ways. The city appears almost magical.

"Geometry Above" Photographed by Ron Foster
Look up while standing in the rotunda of the architectural marvel of the Fulton Hub Station. Located in Lower Manhattan in New York City, it is absolutely beautiful. The geometric shapes, metal and glass accompanied by the shadows made for a lovely photographic moment.

Cape Town Reflections
I was sailing back to the Cape Town Marina from Robben Island. The waters were rough, the boat was bobbing up and down; but this did not stop me from getting this beautiful shot of the city's mountainous skyline. These soaring mountains provide life to this incredible African city.
