Bio

Saul Reyes is a wildlife and nature photographer who lives in Ocala, Florida and travels and explores Central Florida with his camera. He has lived in Florida since 1996, and he finds joy in discovering and rediscovering Florida’s beauty and capturing that beauty in photographs. Within just a few minutes to less than a half day’s travel, one can explore the natural beauty of beaches, coastal dunes, mangroves, swamps, springs, wetlands, pine forests, scrubs, hardwood hammocks, rivers, lakes, and marshes. Photographing wildlife since 2013, his work represents the natural beauty of Florida and the diverse wildlife that calls it home. He enjoys photographing birds of all types, although owls, hawks, woodpeckers, herons and egrets captivate his interest most often. He has also photographed black bears, alligators, and bobcats in the wild. He is inspired by the storytelling photography of Clyde Butcher, Carlton Ward, Mac Stone and other environmental photographers. He is an artist member and board member of the Marion Cultural Alliance (MCA) in Ocala, Florida. He is a frequent exhibitor in juried and open art shows at MCA’s Brick City Center for the Arts, including Pleasures, Best of the Best, and Pleasures 2. His photographs were also selected for the exhibition, Oclawaha: Wild and Endangered River. He was selected for the juried art exhibition Community sponsored by Fine Arts For Ocala (FAFO). He has also exhibited in juried shows hosted by NOMA Gallery in Ocala, Florida, including Seasons of Change and Summer in the Sun.
