Natural Landscapes

by Giles Thurston

I have always been drawn to outside spaces and in particular the mountains. As I explored new locations I used photography as a way to share the wonderful scenes and sights I was experiencing, with family and friends. As time has passed I have found myself increasingly drawn to more intimate scenes and subjects within the landscape, hopefully telling more of a story about these locations and our impact upon them.

Abandoned gas station buildings in a desolate desert landscape photographed in black and white.
Dramatic black and white panorama featuring solitary bare trees on rolling hills.
Minimalist black and white landscape with utility poles and poplar trees along the horizon.
Series of stark winter trees silhouetted against a misty horizon in black and white.
Black and white panorama of an old stone wall with a memorial plaque in a rugged rural landscape.
Weathered concrete platform with number 10 sign against corrugated metal fence.
Desolate road stretches toward horizon with utility poles in monochrome landscape.
Winding rural path through overgrown vegetation in black and white.
Minimalist shelter structure stands alone in an empty field landscape.
Farm equipment and machinery parked alongside a rustic stone building.
Ancient stone ruins stand against moody mountain landscape under dramatic stormy skies.
Bright green fern leaves spread against dark black background creating natural contrast.
Old abandoned wooden boats scattered along a misty beach shoreline under soft cloudy skies.
Weathered fishing boats abandoned and decaying on a pebble beach with cloudy skies overhead.
Dramatic purple and blue aurora borealis display illuminating barren tree silhouettes against night sky.
