About the Photographer

John B. VanOrman graduated from Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan with a Bachelor of Science Degree in biology and from Western Michigan University with a Master's Degree in ecology. During his studies at Western he studied bird populations along the Lake Michigan shoreline. John has taught biology for 35 years and conducted tours throughout Western United States, Northern Michigan, and Canada with his students.
John believes that photography can be a useful tool for developing a sense of stewardship in individuals. The beauty and intricacy found in Creation and displayed in images can develop a sense of awe in the viewer followed by a desire to learn more. Hopefully in this process a sense of stewardship rather then exploitation will emerge.
