Terracotta Warriors, by Ronnie Glover

The Terracotta Warriors are an amazing archaeological finding and was one of my highlights on a trip to China. The Emperor commisioned these warrior sculptures of his army to “protect” him in the afterlife. Each of the 1000’s of warriors are unique. One of the best meals of the trip had proceeded our arrival here. However, the meal and I did not agree and what was to be a several hour tour (and many,many photos) consisted of me snapping a couple of shots and heading quickly outside.

Photographer: Ronnie Glover (Gig Harbor, WA, USA) Registered
Photography took a backseat while Ronnie obtained his college degree. After graduation, he purchased his first camera but was unable to produce the images that he saw in his mind. He then took a few continuing education class to learn the technical aspects of the camera and realized there was so much more to learn about photography. So Ronnie enrolled in the professional program at Southeastern Center for the Arts in Atlanta. The school was operated by Jeanne & Neil Chaput de Saintonge, who currently operate Rocky Mountain School of Photography. He spent 14 years living in Alaska and this gave him unbelievable opportunities to experience nature and capture many images. Ronnie also enjoy travel photography and the experience of different cultures. It is his wish that his images will expose others to the beauty of nature and other cultures. He invites everyone to enjoy his gallery and feel free to contact him with any comments.
