Dan Ficken | Artist

Dan's photography expresses a love of the outdoors and that of special natural, cultural, and wild spaces. Digitally capturing the essence of our beautiful and wondrous natural landscapes has been a way for him to express his profound gratitude for the beauty that surrounds us, and has allowed him to hone his craft and produce these photographic artworks. It has also been a way to help him learn about his photographic subjects and connect with them, whether they are scenic outports in Newfoundland and Labrador, protected ecological areas, flora and fauna, city and streetscapes, geological features, whales in the ocean, or pine needles on the ground. Newfoundland and Labrador is a natural playground for a photographer, and Dan loves the opportunity to study, photograph, and present the province and beyond.
