OBJECTIVES

  • Provide a photographic tool for forest preservation organizations and scientists to convey compelling narratives.

  • Improve methods for capturing and recording ecological change through the medium of ‘repeat fixed point photography’.

  • Develop an innovative photographic framework and approach for capturing expansive forest landscapes.

  • Photographically document the most iconic heritage forests at risk, creating enduring records for the benefit of future generations.

  • Offer viewers the sheer delight of high-quality, large-scale photographs of some of the world's most astonishing forests.

  • Employ advanced multi-row panoramic techniques, maximizing resolution to authentically portray the essence of each unique forest setting. This approach essentially provides viewers with a comprehensive 180-degree contextual perspective of the entire forest scene.

  • Ensure uniform lighting and parameters for each photograph, establishing clear typologies that facilitate direct comparisons between diverse forest ecologies.

  • Forge partnerships with forest and fire scientists to pinpoint locales of scientific and ecological importance to ensure the project's precision and relevance.

  • Develop a replicable post-processing and printing workflow that is tailored to the unique demands and challenges of forest photography.

  •  Accessible photo exhibitions for a wide audience that will increase awareness of California forests, their richness, and the threats they face.

  •  Publication in the form of a book.      

  • Development of both printed and digital databases serving educational and research purposes.

  • Provide valuable resources for conservationists.
