About the Photgrapher:

Since 1981, professional photographer David Meardon has recorded wildlife, scenics, and nature in Southwest Florida with his camera and his creative eye. A resident of Sanibel Island, Meardon moved here from his home state of Rhode Island and began to document the area's unique beauty as photography editor for the Sanibel-Captiva Islander newspaper. There, his work was recognized for excellence in photojournalism by the Florida Press Association.

As a free-lance photographer he handles varied assignments, including environmental portraits, aerial work, and corporate conventions. He has continued to receive accolades for his scenic and wildlife photography on local, state, and national levels, including awards from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agency, Nature Photography magazine, and Florida Wildlife magazine. Meardon has presented slide shows for the Sanibel-Captiva Audubon Society, and his work is featured regularly in the Sanibel-Captiva nature calendar and in local and state visitors guides.
