This project started after processing a photograph I made of Raisa's jaw. It developed into a portfolio of horses that I know, and who know me. I discovered a sublime, sensual beauty in the curves and muscles of their bodies that reminded me of complex landscapes and human female nudes.

• Biography
  My life has been spent in humanistic endeavors. I chose a career in medicine but now have devoted myself full time to documentary photography. I most enjoy working on complex subjects affecting humanity and the natural world. I am currently engaged in a long-term project on the aftermath of incarceration of Japanese American citizens during World War II. I have published humanistic photo essays in The Washington Post, the Idaho Statesman and the Idaho Capital Sun. In 2010 I published a book about the invasion of Iraq titled, Aid and Comfort to the Enemy: A Surgeon's View of the War in Iraq.
