My parents, Ardis and Philip Hyde, as a team, made a full-time living in nature photography for 60-years before many others did. They also not only helped to make national parks and other wilderness, they quietly and for the most part privately, helped pioneer the Post War wave of the Back to the Land Movement. more

The art photography world is no different to the commercial world; there are movers, shakers and players, and thousands of artists, it seems, all vying for wall or page space. And like many other sectors of photography, which lends itself so well to a series or project, art photography seemed no different. more
A Peculiar Apparatus
