Thank you VERY much Gerry for your comment - I feel like you give me way too much credit for capturing the striking beauty of Northern Chile and Bolivia ;-)
But your words are very encourraging, not only to continue shooting, also to process the images that have been building up in my 'archives' over the past year (due to too much work). For instance, I still have back-logged more than a thousand images from a trip to Madagascar last June! (when life was still peaceful there...)
thankfull regards, Greg.

Gosh, Greg - Your gallery is filled with very, very well-thought-through-before-shooting images which have been executed so well! I could study these for a long time and still find much to learn - a recurring feature which I will mention is that I'm never "outside" the scene, because you quietly but VERY STRONGLY bring the viewer right into where he ought to be to see, feel, and experience the total presence, even in thumbnail size. BUT ... as with a lot of deep, top-class art, each of your images is to be experience slowly, quietly and in deep contemplation - they do not lend themselves to "casual browsing" or "a quick parking garage gallery" view! Congrats - I will definitely keep coming back to your site, and wish you many, many more decades of beautiful image-making. I can see, too, that you don't need $20,000 of kit to make perfect art! Wow!

wow, Greg, surreal image.
One of the place of the world to know before to die (so far in my long wishlist)
