Not every fall photo is aspen trunks and yellow leaves. Sometimes when things aren't looking up, you look down and find that life is full of amazing little details. In this case, light snowfall has melted moments before I took this shot, creating tentative small drops as the sun crept from behind the clouds.

I began making photographs when I was 13 years old. I created a darkroom using a slide projector, some old food trays, and chemicals and paper my brother liberated from the neighbor's trash. 10 years later I was published in Time Magazine, and 10 years after that I was in graduate school studying political science. After more than 20 years studying, working, and teaching at UCLA I returned to my first love -- photography. Where the commercial work of my youth was mostly personalities (think 1980s television shows) I have always been drawn to landscapes, which are now my primary artistic focus. The photos I post here are a subset of my work. For the most recent stuff, visit my website www.joedohertyphotography.com.
