Know This
What do you wish to know about my images?
Know that they were conceived in moments of peace — at times joyous, at times melancholy — in the most sublime of places, and most often in solitude. Know that they were made in silence, and that their making was not hurried or rushed. Know that they embody the thoughts, reverence, awe, and love that inspired them, and that these were not manufactured after the fact. Know that they are the musings and contemplations of a flawed and troubled mind seeking reason and meaning. Know that they exist for a reason, and that each has a purpose.
All else is of no consequence.
Should you read these words some decades or centuries from now, know also that we had these wild places to find inspiration and blissful solitude in, to find peace in, to break down and pull ourselves back together in, to be real men and women in. Should these places be lost to you, may you at least find solace in their memory.

Excellently said. Thank you.
Beautiful Guy. And it does come through in each of your images.
What a beautiful thing to keep in mind when worrying about capturing the perfect moment.
Very poignant – you simply said a lot with just a few words.
That pretty much sums it up.
Have Fun,
Jeff

Hey Guy
And know that your words and your images are received with a gratitude and admiration that can only come thru the “reverence, awe, and love that inspired them”.
Thank you.
Cheers

Powerful words that come from the soul!
I appreciate so much the beautiful desert image…looks like my birth-state of Nevada! Glad you are a lover & photographer, too, of Earth’s amazing beauty.
I always enjoy reading your thoughts and even more starring your creations, what I read in this posts I believe is the essence of your work, what I see in your gallery is full of thoughts and emotions as the above words.
These are beautiful and powerful words, Guy. Thank you.
