Field prepared for planting, Drigs, Idaho
Larry Bean is a Landscape Architect living in Billings, Montana, USA. I am admirer of fine art black and white photography. Recently I have started studying the Asian method of composition called Notan. Translated as light/dark harmony, Notan is believed to help the artist illustrate his or her feelings. My images attempt to utilize Notan. So, if my images evokes a feeling or emotion not easily put into words, then mission accomplished.
