Project Description:

This project examines the geology, flora, and large landscapes of the American West that have been shaped by the Colorado River watershed. Over centuries, rivers have shaped this landscape into seemingly endless canyons that each have their own unique qualities and characteristics. From the rarely seen black canyons, shaped by the Gunnison River to the red Navajo Sandstone, shaped by the Green, Virgin, San Juan, and the mighty Colorado itself, these forever-changing shapes are what makes the Southwest such a wonder of the world. Over the years photographing this epic landscape, my hopes are to show some of the more intimate stories of the west.
