Bill Ekstrom
Bill Ekstrom is a third generation Arizonan who was born
and raised in Phoenix and moved to Mohave County in 1976. He has
served as the County Attorney for Mohave County since 1979.
Bill's interest in photography began during his years at Northern
Arizona University in Flagstaff when he spent weekends hiking or
driving the backroads and backwoods of
Northern Arizona.
I have enjoyed doing primarily landscape photography,
but I
have been taking more people pictures since Dianne and I have been
blessed with our children Hillary and Haydon. Arizona is an
incredibly beautiful State and offers many opportunities for
photographers both professional and amateur. I believe some of
the best photographs I've taken have been with instamatic or other
simple cameras while hiking the mountains above Flagstaff,
Kingman or in the Grand Canyon. Even now I prefer a single reflex
camera
and am somewhat intimidated by the many automatic features offered on
the
more sophisticated equipment. Because of job and family demands
it
is often difficult to find time for a creative outlet and photography
offers
a fairly quick and easy outlet for that energy. It also gives me
something
beautiful and special to share with my friends and family. I hope
that you enjoy this sampling of my photographs.
