Stephen Matera’s photographs capture the wild character of the West. Traveling to some of the most remote and rugged regions of the western United States, Stephen captures this impressive landscape in dramatic light, stunning graphic composition, and fleeting atmospheric conditions. The three pillars of landscape photography: clouds, form, and light interact to create stunning images of many unseen areas of the West, as well as some unique perspectives on other more accessible areas. Many of these images are captured after physically challenging backpack trips with a heavy overnight pack. The only way to capture these fleeting moments is to spend extended periods in the wilderness and to be ready when the three elements converge.
