Robert Lott holds masters degrees in engineering (Louisiana State University) and business (the University of Delaware), but he’s primarily a self-taught photographer. He worked as an engineer for more than 40 years at DuPont, after which he decided to direct his creativity toward urban decay, landscape and nature photography. He’s a member of Chester County Art Association, Chester County Camera Club, National Association of Photoshop Professionals, and Rehoboth Art League. Recently, Lott’s art has been shown at several locations in Chester & Delaware Counties and also at the celebrated Immaculata Art Show. The artist teaches HDR photography at Chester County Night School and CCAA and he also does volunteer photography, especially at fund raising events for the Delmarva Red Cross Chapter. Lott received Photographer of Year award in 2011. This was awarded by the Chester County Camera Club.
In the same year, he was elected president for the club in the club years 2011/2012 and 2012/2013. The photographer uses post processing techniques and multiple images to create painterly and beautiful photographs of landscapes and nature. He developed an interest in photography just about two years before retirement; initially he was photographing her daughter’s volleyball games to hone his skills. Eventually, he expanded this interest to include taking photographs of landscapes that capture the beauty of nature. His photographs speak to the hearts of his viewers and help them to get connected to nature. Lott is counted among the best artists in the world and his art is found in many collections and galleries.
