Klein approaches contemporary photography with an awareness of the power the photograph possesses in documenting an ever-changing world. Preserving the sublime qualities of nature, the humbling scale of forests and mountains for generations to come. Klein has an eye for ephemeral beauty, such as the dreamy fog that brushes high altitudes and slips away in a mist. Klein’s photograph titled Mountain Mist was taken on the winding Inca trails through the Andean mountains in Peru.
