For me, landscape art photography is an almost magical tool, combining powers of time travel and physical movement. Looking a large landscape print is more than just a window to a different place and time, it’s a mechanism of transportation. I am enveloped by the scene, becoming part of it. I feel the history of that moment in time, the nostalgia, the emotion of it. The cares and worries of my normal reality all melt away and I embrace the silent wonder of being in a different place and time, if only for a few moments.
Nature is my spiritual connection, it is the part of my world that gives me completeness and peace. I feel no God in our mazes of skyscrapers and smog and asphalt, but I feel God all around in nature – the light, the air, the soil and rock, the waters the foliage, and the creatures great and small.
I make these images to maintain, for myself and for us all, that connection to the history, the wonder, and the glory of the world we live in, while we can still find it.
I hope you enjoy my images. I shoot for my own enjoyment first – selling an image here and there is an added bonus. Buying an image is the ultimate compliment, and one that I do not take lightly, especially in today’s economy. Thanks!
