Flint Hills Photography :: James Nedresky photographer

When I first arrived in Eastern Kansas, I was totally fascinated with the visual experience of range burning. I had no idea whatsoever of why anyone would choose to do this until sometime later. It was responsible for me wanting to learn about and photograph the prairie landscape.
