Trees are the life force of the planet, standing tall and converting Co2 to life giving oxygen. During the harshest weather they continue to withstand the elements. I find trees in winter visually unique, as they stand out in their dark hibernation against the bright and freezing snow. I love the soft light and quality of luminousness that can be achieved in B&W during a snow storm.
You might say there was a natural collision of circumstances between Jack’s nearly lifelong love of nature, and that of photography. His wondrous journey into nature began when he attended an Outward Bound month-long wilderness course at age 16. At 18, (just over 40 years ago) he picked up his first camera, developed his first B&W print in the darkroom and quickly put his two passions together. In recent years Jack’s photography has been exhibited in Paris, Athens, Berlin, Moscow, and Malaga Spain and domestically in the US and published Internationally.
