Road Trip Photographs
In the Fall of 2014, I embarked on a life changing road trip for 5 weeks. In the course of the trip I visited 24 states and drove over 10,000 miles, while camping in a range of environments of snowy mountaintops, rainforests, , badlands, forests, deserts, and beaches. I wanted to explore the natural beauty of America, and capture its diversity of plants, animals, and culture.
