About Clyde Butcher

Many view the Everglades as a frightening swamp, to Clyde Butcher it is art...

"Big Cypress and the Everglades have always been at the heart of my photography. My first baptism in swamp-water was in the Big Cypress where I felt a primeval presence I had never felt before. It was as though I was entering a time warp where the beginning and the ending of time were all combined together in the waters of the swamp - a feeling that we humans are part of a greater whole than we could ever imagine." This is the abundant and ethereal world of Clyde Butcher, one of America's greatest living photographers, who is often compared to the legendary Ansel Adams. In his large-scale, black and white photography, Clyde takes us deep into the Western Everglades and immerses us in his environment - one of the last, great places in the United States.
