“Within the empty space lies a silent friendship however, a bond with the environment. This bond requires no words, no explanation. Although intimidating, these environments often provide peace and clarity, in a strange way I feel acceptance in a way no human could ever offer. Overwhelmed by the power of nature, one must respect it’s power, accepting vulnerability. There’s simply no choice but to comply, eliminating the ego and replacing it with a foundational awareness. Extreme environments only accept humility, and through submissiveness, a bond is born of mutual respect, a companionship that guides safe passage. “

I just dropped a new blog, sharing a bunch of bad ass landscape imagery from a trip to the badlands in late November 2022. Within the post there’s a write up on the trip, and I also share episode one of my new Vlog series… which will showcase of variety of technical landscape imagery pursuits, along with action sports imagery pursuits with some of the best athletes in the world. 

The first episode is a little introspective food for thought on the process behind, capturing some of these moments, and having to overcome out and fear when venturing into these unknown places alone within darkness. 

Also, within the blog post, there are some free, downloadable desktop backgrounds. Enjoy and thank you for your support!
