Fire and ice, two poles of creation, energy, and destruction. Life is precarious on our fragile planet. Ice, which I have now photographed in both the Antarctic and more recently in the Arctic, is a major contributor to the climate change that is just beginning to impact us. Fire also fascinates me. Recently I photographed Pompeii, Iceland, and the Pinacate region of northern Mexico. In India, I photographed the forests and animals of Kipling's Jungle Tales–a magical world minimally protected and highly endangered. Below are some of the photographs from these travels. |

"I have always been interested in time and landscape," Myers said during a recent studio visit. "I don't see landscape as a static object sitting in front of the camera. I constantly look at the land and wonder how it looked 100 years ago or 1,000 years ago." |
