Seeking expressions of form and beauty through landscape photography is a lifetime passion for photographer Lee Simmons.
The craft of traditional B&W landscape photography allows the photographer to seek out and experience the inherent beauty in the natural world.
Working with handmade wooden cameras, pre-visualizing images, developing film, spending time in the field and darkroom extend these moments of natural beauty.
While these images depict scenes of our local area, they are created as a cathartic exercise from start to finish over many months.
Searching out moments of expression through the craft of traditional B&W photography are the underpinnings of this body of work.
