Lars Gesing Fine Art Nature Images

I learned to walk near a sea that’s 5000 miles away — in Hamburg, a German port town known as the “Gate to the World”. It’s a creed that changed the course of my life. When I was 23, I moved halfway across the globe to do what many have done before me: Seek my life’s true fortunes in the American West.

It was there where I first read the poet Gary Snyder’s maxim: Nature is not a place to visit. It is home. When I arrived in the wide open spaces of the West, I found my home. I learned to appreciate the landscape as a silent retreat that rewarded talking less. Out there, the quiet introvert in me finally experienced the comfort that not knowing what to say was no longer a flaw but an expression of affiliation and admiration. I felt calm, understood, relieved, sheltered. I felt A Sense of Home. It’s what kindled a lifelong pursuit: A passion to photograph the beauty of the West, but to do so in a way that my images allow you to feel at home, too. 

As I learned more about Biophilic design and the way that bringing nature home boosts our mood and wellbeing, my passion turned into a purpose. It’s what I call A SENSE OF HOME: In a world that seems to spin more out of control by the minute, my timeless, award-winning artwork is designed to be a peaceful retreat within your home or office. It’s a space for your busy mind to unwind and relax. It’s an invitation to visit your happy place, to step into your dreams and get lost in a world of beauty, bravery and wonder — a comfortable escape to what it truly means to be yourself.
