Behind the Lens

fullsizeoutput_15.jpeg
I hail from the great land of Cincinnati, Ohio.  I have been taking pictures of incredible places for about 5 years.  Nature is awe-inspiring and has the potential to completely transform our thinking.  It invites us to a mental state that exists outside of routine and monotony.  It invites us to become something greater and expand.  Adventure, hiking and travel have opened up my mind and my heart to the purest forms of joy I have ever experienced.  I simply do my best to capture these transcendental moments through photography.  I know images are never quite as beautiful as seeing sights in person, but I hope that the photos seen on this site can leave you feeling joyful and motivated to take adventures of your own.  Stay Wild at Heart, and take the time to look up in Perfect Silence at the Stars.

When I heard the learn’d astronomer, 

When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me, 

When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them, 

When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room, 

How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, 

Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself, 

In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, 

Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.

-Walt Whitman
