We've been photographing the changing landscape and architecture of Schoharie County in upstate New York for more than twenty years using a 4X5 view camera.

The images have been published by WW Norton & Co. in a book entitled: TIME WEARING OUT MEMORY, SCHOHARIE COUNTY with an introduction by Jeffrey Lent, author of  In the Fall and Lost Nation.

"Without a trace of easy nostalgia, these sharp-edged photographs arrest the eye and reawaken the human fascination with architecture, landscape, history, and the forces of decay."
-Billy Collins, two termed U.S. Poet Laureate

The Book

2018 marks the 10th anniversary of publication of the book.
In addition to great reviews worldwide,  silver gelatin prints from of the images have been exhibited at the O.K. Harris Gallery in NYC and are in the Smithsonian & other collections.























The filmmaker Ken Burns has commented on these photos, saying:
"In these wonderful images can be found the soul of a nation, a legacy that is fast disappearing in the face of the developers' relentless march. In this vernacular inventory, so beautifully rendered, is also our future".
