Joshua Cripps, Nature Photographer THIS WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL


It's a beauty that pervades, invigorates, pacifies, and overjoys.


A beauty to experience, to remember, and to share.


For me, photography is a medium through which to experience and share the wonder of this planet. For rather than stand as a barrier between myself and nature, my camera has enhanced my sense of beauty. It has made me more finely attuned to the ever- changing interaction of patterns and shapes, light and shadows, drama and subtlety which make up the natural world. It allows me to capture the often-fleeting emotion and feeling of the moment, to preserve it, and to share it with others. To create often-needed reminders that this world truly is beautiful.
