About Me
- JD
- Bend, Oregon
- Simplicity, Mystery and Beauty are the structure for my personal vision of Oregon’s seldom-seen desert landscapes. From a landscape photographer’s perspective Oregon’s high desert is a blank slate. With no preconceived views for comparison, I am free to interpret these unique and isolated settings. Whether using the abstract light of the full moon or focusing on intimate details possessing a rough and delicate beauty, my images reflect my passion for protecting Oregon’s fragile desert. Having spent over thirty years climbing, exploring and photographing this region I’ve gained a unique perspective, one that enables me to seek out and reveal the desert’s simplicity and mystery. I hope that by capturing this vision my photographs will foster a curiosity and desire to visit and induce a motivation for protection. As a volunteer working with the Bend based Oregon Natural Desert Association I provided the motivation to establish their annual Wild Desert Calendar. This all volunteer effort has, for the last 16 years, provided the only showcase of Oregon desert images by regional photographers.
