DOORS OF SOUTH AMERICA
Our collection of 300 best door pictures of South America has been a long work in progress, photographing historic doors across nine countries including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, and Uruguay.
What is the attraction of taking door pictures? It’s a combination of visual composition, symmetry, and symbolism. The wide variety of colors, contrasts, and styles by region makes for a dialogue on culture. Many of the doors come from the end of the 19thcentury, some are older. The doors mark security in functionality, and behind many is hospitality. And yet the doors we picture are all closed, leaving us, the onlookers, left outside pondering its significance.
This collection of South America door pictures provides an inventory of styles and designs that may be useful to future generations in understanding regional variations and what patterns are authentic to the continent. We are jazzed to share this large collection in our latest book called Doors of South America.

NEVADA VISIONS
The Silver State, it is less than you would like, and more than you think. This photograph collection shares hidden treasures and landscapes of the state that has so much more to offer than Las Vegas. The ghost-towns, mountains, mines, and animals are captured in some of the least populated areas of the lower 48 states. Twenty years of exploring the state are condensed into the pictures of Nevada Visions.
