Stephen Wilkes, Photographer, New York

Description

This expansive landscape photograph by Stephen Wilkes features a large herd of black and brown cattle scattered across a textured grassy plain. In the midground, a serene lake reflects the soft daylight, flanked by sparse trees along its shores. A majestic range of snow-capped mountains rises sharply in the distance beneath a dynamic sky with scattered clouds. The natural lighting highlights the rolling terrain and the varied tones of the grazing animals. The composition balances the sweeping scale of the geography with the textured presence of the livestock in the foreground.
