Eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains | Mitch Dobrowner

I first went into the Eastern Sierra Nevada in the Winter of 1981; it was then that I realized that its otherworldly, intimate and intense beauty had been calling me my entire life.  The Sierra Nevada has always represented my belief in the exemplary value of the Earth and its extraordinary landscapes.... landscapes that define the shape and meaning of life.  These photographs are an attempt to convey the experiences and the moods derived from my close association with this region, if only because the Sierra Nevada has helped me define the shape and meaning of my life.
My hope is that mankind learns to humble itself and respect these vast, beautiful, wild places.
