Description
In the south part of the Sierra Nevada, Mount Whitney is the highest summit of the 48 contiguous states. To reach this wonderful mountain, the road narrows through the Alabama Hills, where Mobius Arch can be found.
This arch perfectly frames Mount Whitney, but it also frames who I am. Standing in front of it with my camera, I’m a photographer. This is my world to explore through my lense.
But when I am on the other side of the Alabama Hills, I’m in a different playground. I trade my camera for rope and climbing gear. I become the subject of my photography by climbing the mountains.
Crossing those hills, leaving Mobius arch is a transition between two environments in which I have different roles
The Mobius arch becomes my gateway that connects both sides of me: photographer and climber.
