Throughout the past few years, I’ve enjoyed getting to know several outstanding landscape photographers through conversations we engage in on a Discord Server known as “Landscape Photographers Worldwide.” What I have come to appreciate about this community is that it somehow has found a way to strip away all of the typical negative aspects of modern social media interaction while keeping all more

The trees are like three actors, with the central one taking the ‘Oscar’. The others have supporting roles but are critical in the achieving the dynamic balance this image has. more

The part of the workflow that really interests me is the actual taking of the images, which is a very meditative process that I find very relaxing. I can spend hours and hours at the edge of the water and free my mind from the constant chatter. more
