Linde Waidhofer About the Artist
|
||
 |
For Linde Waidhofer, landscape photography is as much passion as profession. She works almost exclusively in color, formerly in 35mm and 6-by-17cm, and today she photographs with state-of-the-art digital cameras. She has published three books of landscape photography: High Color; Red Rock, Blue Sky; and, most recently, Stone & Silence. | |
| Fall aspens, Hopewell Pass, northern New Mexico | Linde searches for the photographic equivalent of the emotional impact of wild and mysterious landscapes. She finds this equivalent in the secret geometry and design beneath the surface of the natural world, in images of simplicity and abstraction. Linde loves the wildest corners of the West, natural light and changing weather.
Linde’s stock photograpy is represented by the Telegraph Colour Library in London, and on-line by Alamy.com. Her Western landscapes have appeared in National Geographic books, and in magazines in Germany, Italy and the US. She has photographed assignments from Japan and New Zealand to Alaska and the Alps. Today she lives near Crestone, in Colorado’s San Luis Valley, under the 14,000-foot summits of the Sangre de Cristo mountains, just north of the Great Sand Dunes, in a house she designed and built with her husband. From this base, Linde tries to spend at least six months a year on the road, exploring and photographing new landscapes. Her latest photographic adventure has been an ongoing exploration of Patagonia, the southernmost end of South America, a landscape of incredible beauty, relatively unvisited, unknown, and almost unphotographed. |
