Piece description from the artist
The desert of Utah is a magical and mysterious place. Castle Valley is home to some of the most awe-inspiring desert towers in the area. Castleton Tower, The Rectory and The Priest can be seen on the left hand side of the silhouette – the three stand out like stoic giants in the waning spring light. Each of those three towers are popular and magnificent rock climbing routes. Castleton Tower (tower on the far left) was climbed a little more than 50 years ago and pioneered the desert tower climbing mindset.
My focus and intent as a photographer is to transport the viewer from their place in space and time to another world. I am an adventure photographer who's goal is to capture those images that epitomize adventure. I want to instill in my viewers a sense of transformation and transportation of their mind – to take the viewer to the places and situations where the photographs reside. I want the viewer's heart rate to increase when they see an adrenaline filled photo; a sense of height and dizziness when they see a photo from a mountain top; a sense of calming and relaxation when they focus on the awe-inspiring landscapes of seldom visited positions. I strive to embody adventure in every photograph and strive to share these images with everyone.
