Guest Gallery: John Ellert

Today’s guest photographer is John Ellert. He is retired, lives in Wichita and now pursues photography full time.

The photo shown here was taken on a trip to Italy in 2009.

“I love to travel, doing so frequently and working to capture the light and visual essence of all the places I visit. However, I am a proponent of shooting in one’s backyard — any location reached in a short trip — so Kansas and the Great Plains are also frequent subjects,” Ellert said.
