Greg Jahn Photography

This is one of my favorite landscape photographs, one that I consider entirely unprecedented and unique. It was taken during a very stormy series of days, when I was limited to gravel roads in the Owyhees because all other roads were impassable. As I was wandering around searching for a composition, I discovered this tortured collection of aspen trees. Once I found a composition, I waited to see what the sky and light may do. Very briefly, the clouds opened up in such a way as to illuminate the aspen trees. Conceptually, to me, the aspen trees look like mysterious creatures running across the hillside.
