Print of the Month

Each month I select one photograph for the Print of the Month collection.  This is a photograph that I feel is special in one way or another.  I provide not only my feelings towards the subject but also some insight into how the photograph was captured in the field and what I did with it in the post processing to achieve my vision.

American Southwest

The American Southwest is home to some of the most beautiful and stunning scenery on the planet.  There's so much to cover that a lifetime of frantic photography wouldn't be enough time.  This part of the earth has a fascinating geologic history that culminates in the Grand Staircase, the march of time from the bottom of the Grand Canyon to the top of Bryce.  Oh, what a place!

California Deserts

The Deserts of California are home to the most amazing wonders and sublime beauty.  From the depths of Death Valley to the high deserts of Joshua Tree with the endless Mojave desert in between, they offer endless  variety and fascination.  Sunrise and sunset are truly the golden hours when one feels exhilarated and glad to be alive.

Eastern Sierra

Traveling north on US Highway 395 you cannot keep your eyes off of the towering peaks of the Sierra crest to your left.  They jut up from the arid Owens Valley with such raw power and energy that it could have happened yesterday.  The Sierra command so much attention that we fail to notice the peaks to our right that are home to the oldest living things on the planet - the Ancient Bristlecone Pine.  And that's just the start.  There's so much to explore in this wonderful land.

Green Wilderness

There are many quite places of pristine beauty, places that speak to our souls. We may discover them by accident.  They may or may not be well known.  And yet, they are there, sometimes even in our own back yard.  And we are thankful for them and celebrate them.
