I will be moving to Atlanta, GA, in three months. This series will be my love letter to Tulsa, a place I have called home off-and-on since 1998. 

These images will consist of things that stand out in my mind about Tulsa. Busted store fronts, religious zealotry, sprawling concrete, Brutalist architecture, racial segregation, violent weather, etc. But also the ragged beauty of this place, the vibrant music scene, sprawling urban parks full of persimmon trees and meandering trails, and all the places I visit and see around town that tickle me or make me reminisce.

Tulsa, you’re weird and I love you.

Grand View Point

Canyonlands National Park

This is a two mile round trip hike at the southern-most point of the Island In The Sky in Canyonlands with views of the White Rim trail and vistas in every direction. The trail eventually leads to this boulder outcropping at the edge of the mesa with stunning views for miles. This image has a lot of detail because it is comprised of seven vertical images stitched together. A large print would be spectacular to take in.

This is available to purchase as a print, email for inquiries: sgfphoto@gmail.com
