The more I explore the Oregon High Desert, the more I fall in love with the vast distances and remarkable beauty. When back home, I dream of the next dramatic landscape I will discover in the wild backcountry of remote southeast Oregon.
Early on, I was hesitant to reveal the location portrayed in a photograph, worried that someone else would take the same shot. But I later became even more concerned that if the general public doesn’t know the beautiful public lands are out there, then only the local commercial interests would have a say in what happens to these lands in the future. I realized that to help protect these amazing places from being lost to development, they MUST be shared.
I hope you will find a way to visit these southeastern Oregon wonders, and others in the West, and fall head over heels in love!
Thank you for your interest.
