Title: Mineral Seep 1 Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is best known for these mineral seeps, which color cliffs rising right out of Lake Superior. I've kayaked beneath these cliffs for years, photographing the ever-changing patterns. The white streaks in this remind me of human figures distorted by distance and atmosphere.

Title: Winter Berries Winter in Canada, sometimes presents a bleak and bland looking environment. Then, there is this instant of pure joy when, in the midst of all that white, I spot a small bunch of red! I suddenly forget about cold wind and ice. All I want to do is show how I feel in that instant.

Title: Post Arcadia 7 The central theme of one of my long-term projects is the domestication of nature, which encompasses both exterior and inner space as concepts on aesthetics. Landscape is in its origin a concept, which roots in the beginning of industrialization and renaissance painting. Seen as a concept, landscape therefore represents an image of an idea. We declare what an ideal landscape looks like and represent it e.g. in a photographic reproduction. In everyday life simulations of landscape and nature in relation of educative, scientific, recreational-oriented or economical contexts are ubiquitous. They not only influence our notion of nature in its derivation but also enhance implicitness of a designed environment. The differentiation between image, copy, representation, simulation and finally simulacrum is increasingly more difficult.

Title: Salt Storm A salt storm is a low-lying cloud of airborne salt that hovers over large areas, the result of wind sweeping over salt flats. Salt storms usually occur in places with large aboveground deposits of salt, such as those surrounding the Great Salt Lake in Utah and the Aral Sea. Salt storms are also a frequent phenomenon in the Salar de Uyuni region in Bolivia. © wikipedia ----------- In couple of minutes we were running to our cars, visibility dropped to several yards and we ended up submerged in thick cloud of salt. --- Altiplano, Bolivia, Salar de Uyuni near Tunupa Volcano.
