Its effect is not unlike being punched extremely hard photographically in the face, whilst simultaneously enjoying a thorough and detailed conversation with your mind, your heart, and your soul. more
Northern Exposure
My dream of spending several months in Alaska rose anew last year when I was in between permanent job positions and with a free summer ahead. more
End frame: “Below South Crofty” by Jem Southam

For the Joy of Photography

Endframe: Uluru Dreaming, April 1990, Uluru National Park by Peter Jarver, AIPP
