Unique Nature Photography
"There's always an element of chance in
photography. If you have practiced, the
process is intuitive.You suddenly recognize something and you react."-
ANSEL ADAMS - 1970
(est. 1988)
"Having always loved the outdoors and
then being able to present it in a manner that
stirs a memory or an emotion for myself and
others makes me aware of what creating a
photograph can mean."
"The first time I saw an Ansel Adams photograph, I was hooked. It had such a special look to it that I could sense the artistic ability possessed by Adams, to make black and white capture an image so beautiful and simple. When I first started to experiment with infrared film, and I saw the results, once again I realized my whole outlook of photography changed. Anyone can take a picture, but when the photographer controls the outcome, THE PHOTO BECOMES ART."
