Steve Vit

Born in 1958, I have been a late adopter when it comes to photography. My first real experience was with digital, and the accelerated learning made possible by the digital revolution has really helped me to develop a passion for the instant gratification that digital provides.

A chance purchase of a digital camera to take holiday snaps has turned into an all-consuming passion for the pursuit of the perfect image. Whilst not a full-time professional photographer, I am a committed enthusiast, and have had some success both in competitions and with commercial sales of my work. I do photographic work for the local zoos when time permits.

Actually it hardly seems fair to call what I do work. I love nothing better than to set up my camera and often wait hours for the shot that matches what’s in my mind’s eye. There is something quite spiritual about capturing an image of God’s creation in all its beauty and spontaneity.

I started out with travel shots and landscapes, but along the way, I have experimented with macro and wildlife photography. I greatly admire the work of my colleagues here at DPI and feel privileged to be a part of such a talented group.

I live in Melbourne, Australia, which is vibrant city of nearly four million people whose origins are from every corner of the world. It is a city that energises me and offers many opportunities to the keen photographer. I hope that the small selection of my work that appears here gives some joy to you the viewer. I have enjoyed taking every one of them and if some of that joy is transferred to the viewer, then I will be happy that I am doing something worthwhile.

One day I hope to be in the enviable position of making a good living from doing what I love…I wish you the same prize in life.
