To fully appreciate the world we live in, one must wander the forgotten paths, revel in the mist shrouded forests and dance with the tide on a sandy beach. But in this hectic pace of modern civilization we do not always have or find the time to get away and enjoy the wondrous beauties that abound.

Don Gates' photography captures the essence of the natural world in it's simplest form. His eye and talent for capturing breathtaking images can draw us into wondrous worlds and exotic locations. We can hear the gentle breeze caressing lush green leaves, the waves splashing on the shore in joyous abandonment and the golden silence of a mirrored pond if we take the time to listen.
Thank You.
