Image one: children play soccer on a dirt field at sunset in Leh, Ladakh, India, 2017.

Image two: soccer players in San Jose, Costa Rica, play on a public field adjacent to a conteoversial stadium funded by the Chinese government, 2011.

This was a huge project and the largest sale I’ve made of personal work in my career. 142 rooms, each with a 35x49”ish framed print hanging over the bed. Images of my beloved Ozarks.

Huge thanks to all involved in making this project happen and for the universe reminding me I can write off the costs of my backpacking trips. 📸🌄

A rare morning in a new place with some rare April finds. A nesting turkey with 13 eggs; two snails slowly mating; a beautiful creek hike all to ourselves. No tripod and all the green. 🌱💦 //
