Scott whenever the "East vs. West" threads pop up I almost engage. Then I think about your photos, which are some of the most immersive, personal landscapes around. You've developed a signature style with signature iconography and have managed to do it with what most of us would pass by.
Thank you Mark. I really appreciate your comment. Not having iconic locations, mountains and valleys around means I have to work hard to find interesting locations/subjects to photograph. Some days it can be very frustrating.
