Albert Rim Sunrise, 2017 framed pigment print image 18 x 12
"My photographs are typically the result
of an enthusiastic hike in search of unique glimpses of nature. I
enjoy the entire process of planning an outing, observing the weather,
light, and composition of the subject. The actual “taking” of a
photograph affects me. Often my heart will race, giving me
immediate feedback that the image is original and
worthwhile. The photographic process is a journey of the
translation of light on the camera sensor to a print that sparks in me
the original aesthetic and emotional response. Whether the result
is an image of a landscape, water in all its forms, or rock strata, I
seek meaning in a beautiful “snapshot” of color, time and
space.
As noted by Emerson, 'meaning in life may be better grounded in nature
than American politics, religion, or literature.' I am amazed at
the complexities of natural cycles such as the erosion of rock and the
formation of new sandstone, or the emergence and inevitable
disintegration of all life. My photographs open a small window
into a feeling of wonder, and of mysterious permanence, overlying the
cycles of nature."
