American Landscapes, 1985-2016
Ever since my first cross-country trip via Greyhound bus in 1975, I have loved and never tired of discovering new places on my travels through America. I have witnessed much beauty, incredible diversity of landscapes and people, as well as unsettling changes as a result of uncontrolled growth and sometimes disrespect for the history and heritage of communities. I feel blessed that, through the medium of photography, I have been able to build awareness and create a visual record for some of places I have been deeply drawn to.
