I am drawn to photograph those moments when form and light combine in a beauty that has meaning for me emotionally as well as aesthetically. In making landscape images I move slowly, visiting sites multiple times getting to know the land and the light. I prefer working in a particular locale/area so that once completed the final image(s) will impart a sense of place through my experiences in relation to the geography and atmosphere.
For many years I photographed with traditional large format cameras making both silver and hand made platinum prints. Now completely digital IĀ use piezographic archival carbon inks and Hahnemuele cotton rag papers. With these tools I've been able to exceed the quality I require and expand on my expectations in the final print.
