In Paths Untrodden

This series of landscape photographs explore texture and form and blurs the edges of how photography represents the landscape. My photographs seek to capture the quiet and everchanging light that moves across marsh wetlands, through the forest and other favorite places at the different points in the day throughout the year. I challenge the viewer to rethink what a photograph looks like and consider myself a painter with light and shape and motion. I use the simple Zoneplate and pinhole rather than a glass lens with 4×5 Polaroid media to explore the other-worldly experience more deeply. These methods reveal what cannot normally be seen. In my mind, that essence, captures the feelings and spirit the landscape that I imagine is there just under the surface. This is a current work in progress.
