I've started a major new project that requires more detail than I can put on this site. The project is called What You See: Photographs of Chinese Expulsion Sites, and its a mixture of photography, history and cultural awareness. I hope you check it out.
I have just added a new artistic impression series called "Instances of One or Fewer." This is a very different concept for me, and it is a product of my thinking about the place of photography in the expanding digital world. I hope you appreciate both the images and the thinking behind them.
On a recent trip to southern Idaho I found this imposing rock on a ridge overlooking an endless vista southward into Nevada.
Tucked in along the crowded shoreline of Lake Tahoe is this wonderful balancing rock at D.L. Bliss State Park. It has a commanding presence, caused in part by its location near the top of a steep mound and in part by the sort of alien creature face that appears if you look at it a little too long. More than anything, sitting in its shade on a hot day provides a wonderful serenity and respite from the throngs of people nearby.
I recently returned from a trip to Nova Scotia, where I spent some time photographing the amazing balancing rock on Digby Neck. This is one of the most spectacular rock formations I've ever seen - a single basalt column about 20 feet high and 4 feet in diameter perched right on the edge of another rock just feet away from crashing ocean waves. How it has managed to survive the winds and water for thousands of years is a true testify to the strength of just a few inches of solid rock.
