Until you experience standing next to a baobab tree you cannot fathom the size! And the age of one of the oldest baobabs? Sunland baobab in Duiwelskloof, South Africa is estimated to be 6,000 years old! It has dwelt and endured raging storms, drought, changing civilizations, wars, and the passing souls who sheltered under its outstretched arms. The baobab tree in the photo above lives on the Okavango Delta and if needed to, yes, I'd tie myself to it to save its life if anyone ever tried to destroy it. Called Moana in Setswana, this tree flowers large white flowers right before the much-needed rains come. Seeing those blossoms brings a sigh of relief to the parched lands beneath its trunk.
Transcending Stories Through Platinum/Palladium Prints
For me, black and white photography is more than an image—it’s a timeless narrative, a way to transcend the moment and tell stories that linger for generations. I strive to work with the same dedication and precision as the old masters, like Ansel Adams, whose artistry in the darkroom elevated photography to fine art.
My prints are created in collaboration with Cone Editions Press in Vermont, a studio renowned for its mastery of the platinum/palladium (Pt/Pd) process. This meticulous, entirely hand-crafted method begins with coating fine art paper in a light-sensitive blend of platinum and palladium salts. The paper is then exposed in direct contact with a large-format negative, producing images of remarkable tonal depth, silken shadows, and luminous highlights.
Unlike silver-based prints, Pt/Pd images are embedded into the very fibers of the paper, giving them an extraordinary permanence and resistance to fading. The result is an archival work of art with a rich, almost three-dimensional presence—each one as unique as the story it tells.
