Today I wanted to share the work of a free man, I present to you, Alex Burke
Never really interacted with the guy when he still used to post here so I shall simply copy paste his own description of himself

I hope we can all do a Burke some time in the future and leave this place to live off our hobbies

"The emotional connection we all have with nature is powerful. Nature can be intense and unforgiving as well as calming and peaceful. I seek out remote locations where these true feelings of the natural world can emerge, using photography as a means to capture these emotions and bring them back for all to see."

"The wilderness areas and grand mountain ranges of Colorado are a place where anyone can fall in love with the outdoors. I venture deep into the wilderness so I can witness the most vibrant sunrises and sunsets from the best possible location. It is my goal to bring the entire experience of the journey and the majestic scenery to life in my photographs."

"Living in Greeley, Colorado has given me great access to Colorado’s magnificent mountains and been a gateway to the west, but it has also given me the opportunity to experience one of Colorado’s less-photographed locations: the eastern plains. The wide-open views, gently rolling hills and endless green fields create a special sensation that can’t be matched."

"Unlike the wilderness, where I tend to show a natural landscape untouched by humans, photographing the prairie gives me the chance to embrace the human alterations to the land and focus on the patterns, shapes and structure added by mankind. Nature still plays a strong role in these images as all of these elements are placed under the powerful skies of the Great Plains."

"The way I see the world is best conveyed through the lens of a large format film camera. The extreme clarity of this traditional medium allows me to capture every minute detail in the scene just the way it was. The rich colors and tones of film allow me to express my vision powerfully, while the technical movements of a large format camera allow for incredible focus and perspective control unlike any other format."

"Using the mountains and the prairie as my classroom, I have taught myself everything I know about photography."
Alex Burke

Those quotes all sound like some pretty fart huffing gay shit tbqhwy

And that's the end of it
Burke really knows his shit and is a huge nerd about it ( as seen on his website https://www.alexburkephoto.com/)
I personally enjoy his photos a lot even thought I find them very harmless and a times very well executed but lacking in depth

>>4432097
Very true, but to his defence it's on his business website where he kinda has to sell himself to make those dollerinos

>>4432070 (OP)
The greatest to have posted regularly on /p/
He popped in for a week or two in like 2022?

>>4432131
Yeah, that was a great thread. I hope he does another one sometime.

If nothing else, Alex inspires me to not be a little bitch and hike a heavy camera out to the middle of nowhere

>>4432070 (OP)
>and leave this place
Fuck off then nigger
>>4432131
I think it was more recent, he took pics of his Porsche
I find his photo style to be generic but he does with it a giant refinement, very tasteful and the plus value of the technique because most of this is in film
FlashAnon was also very good but he stopped posting 5 years ago or so

Insanely good.

he could be with nat geo if he had the connections and was willing to let other people touch his film. i would not be surprised if he were posthumously recognized as one of the greats.

>me wishing everyone so much success that they don't have time to shit post on here
>retard selectively reads whatever he want's it to be and reeeees

Hiking in the middle of nowhere with a big heavy camera is no guarantee of success, I am proof of that.

I miss Bassackwards. Ride on in that big Crown Royal bag in the sky my dude

Talented but a bit of an arrogant twat when he was on here.
