Lone Tree in a Forest.

"American Chestnuts (once) ran from Maine to Florida so thick on the dry ridgetops of the central Appalachian mountains that when their crowns filled with creamy-white flowers the mountains appeared to be covered in snow" (Derrick Jensen, Strangely Like War - a Global Assault of Forests).

The forests of the Appalachian mountains, decimated and plundered by the relentless efforts of the US Forest Service and their partners in crime the big timber corporations, grimly hold tight to life. The rich ecosystems they supported have been reduced to a tiny fraction of their former diversity, and are now far more fragile than ever. Balsam Fir, Blood Mountain forest, North Georgia.

I'm constantly working towards furthering my stock lists, and improving my portfolio. These images are all of wild subjects, in their natural environment. Each photo is available for stock use, and photographic prints, screensavers, note cards or calendars are also available. To order any of these pictures, or for complete stock photo lists, drop an email.
