Gary Fraser is a long time photographer and Bear River resident. Self-taught, Gary says he started out shooting for every photographer’s list of quintessential sunsets and waterfalls, but as time went on he began to see the beauty in the smaller pieces of what he describes as the intimacy of the landscape.

"As a young boy it seemed my life was all black and white…..our TV was black and white, the first movie I saw was black and white, life itself in my childhood appeared black and white."

"It is a privilege to take those moments of time into my camera, to hold that instant in a timeless state by making the photograph. It is at those times the bond between human and earth is most strong. It is at those times the mystery offers a glimpse of the answer."
