This work has been created for all who love travel and travel photography
and for those who appreciate the world as the camera sees it-- in its
splendor-- and not as some would have you believe it is.
As a freelance travel writer / photographer Byron writes a travel column for
the Charlotte Observer and the Mooresville Tribune on an on-going basis.
Other credits include: American Thunder (a Time magazine
publication); Our State magazine; Blue Ridge Country magazine;
Carolina Living magazine; Winston-Salem Journal; Savannah
Morning News; The Florida Times Union; Tampa Tribune; and
the Orlando Sentinel.
Summing up Crowley’s work, Lowell Teal commented: “Byron Crowley’s written
description of historic places and natural beauty captures the readers
interest with a beginning connection that is spellbinding until completion
of the article. The reader becomes transformed in place and time during the
first paragraph with his ability to write. The hook is set deep!
Yet, more astounding, is his creative photography. I have no knowledge how
he might study an object to photograph. When he has, the finished product
always conveys the impression of depth and distance in perfect perspective.
His work has a visual angle exemplary of only the true professional. He is
the very best.”

that fully expresses what one feels, in the
deepest sense, about what is being photographed.”

camera.”

full of unexposed film.”
