We Are All Hungry
I went hunting morels again on Monday with my friends Lauren and Mike. We revisited the same area as from Saturday, but it had been picked over pretty well. The problem now is that everyone in our area knows the season is upon us and the hills are full of people. Nothing [...]
Swan Pond
This scene came about north of Livingston on a very stormy day in the Shields Valley. Taken on the same photo drive as Thursday’s image, we were actually chasing a small hole in a large storm that had settled over the region. We followed it for about 100 miles, always trailing behind and [...]

I hadn’t thought about the idea of vertical panoramas until my recent post in which two horizontal images were used to create single square composition.

The lack of detail, yet presence of grain makes for an interesting effect in the series. The process [...]
