I m a self-taught photographer who s always believed that it s crucial to record on film only what s natural; I could never resort to using color-adding filters. Whether I m trying to capture moonlight dancing across a remote lake, or that indigo-like glow on the horizon at twilight, freezing an event and getting the light just right makes all the preparation worthwhile. Sometimes just being in the right place at the right time can produce a good photograph. But in most cases there s no substitute for the hard work and planning involved in just getting to a location and setting up the shot. I hope you enjoy the images.

Lee and Marshall Lustic - landscape photography - Dallas TX

I have been interested in photography since my dad gave me his old Argus camera back in 1976. Ever since I have be searching for the next great photo. Photography enables me to re-live my life moments, share my vision and increase my connection with nature, the planet and people. My style is to go for the composition and light first. I like to experiment with differnet mediums of light, lenses, textures, patterns, paper and formats. I try to picture the photo in my mind before I snap the shutter. I am drawn more towards portraits with a strong emotional content. Since the digital era I have preferred black and white but also include color. I enjoy the challenges of being out in the environment and experimenting with different techniques. All the page, gallery and thumbnails photographs were taken be me except for the photograph of the mountains relecting into the lake which was taken by my dad when he was stationed in Alaska during the Korean war..

He is represented in New England by Boston Corporate Art. My love of outdoor photography began at a very early age. My parents believed that seeing the country should be an integral part of our education. I photographed our family adventures as we camped and backpacked through all 50 states. I complemented these experiences in the world outdoors with my formal education, earning degrees in Environmental Studies and Oceanography. As an ecologist, I see many parallels between the study of natural ecosystems and the photography of these same landscapes. In ecosystem research, you have to approach the world on several different levels. To see the big picture, you need to investigate the various spatial and temporal scales on which natural processes occur. In photography, through our use of composition, light, point of view, aperture, and shutter speed, we are doing the same thing, exploring various parts of our visual world in order to better understand the whole. My quest has taken me from Alaska to Antarctica, from Africa to Australia, in order to preserve on film the grand landscapes that are in danger of succumbing to man s encroachment. I am drawn to the juxtaposition of strength and delicacy that I see in the canyons, monoliths, arches, and glaciers of the world. So formidable and imposing on the surface, one must realize that they are transient features on our ever-changing earth. Some erode slowly to our perception, on geologic time scales. Others are disintegrating rapidly, as unnatural processes take over. I...
