About Robert Atkinson
Robert David Atkinson
Robert David Atkinson is an award-winning, New York City-based American photographer with a career spanning more than 35 years in still life, nature, and landscape photography.
His fine art bird photography resonates with bird lovers worldwide, distilling the quiet, ethereal beauty of birds.
Atkinson's latest book, Held Here by Silence, continues the visual journey of his debut book, bringing together luminous black-and-white images and intimate, journal-like prose. Through a series of distinctive bird portraits, he captures fleeting moments of stillness and presence.
His debut book, A Silent Witness to Beauty, was selected by the Griffin Museum of Photography and awarded Gold for Fine Art Photography Book in the prestigious Prix de la Photographie (PX3), Paris.
““Everything is worth observing, from the natural world to everyday objects, from the elegant flight of a songbird to urban decay exploration. To capture these things in a photograph or sound recording, to create an image from nothing, has been my lifelong work and passion. I am always looking.””
