DeWitt County\, TX)\nLifelong rancher and conservationist Frank Klein has documented the natural rhythms of his family’s DeWitt County ranch\, established in 1878. His interest in photography began with vacation snapshots and wildflowers\, evolving to capture wildlife\, insects\, landscapes\, and local Texas cemeteries\, each with its own personality. Using Nikon cameras with vintage high-resolution Canon lenses\, Klein creates archivally printed photographs that explore the interconnectedness of life. Guided by his belief that “Everything is interconnected\,” his work encourages viewers to reflect on the beauty\, fragility\, and subtle dramas of the natural world. \nSelected Awards & Exhibitions:\n2021: “A Witch and Her Familiar\,” 1st Place\, Dimension XLVIII Photography\, Art Center Corpus Christi \n2020: Outdoor Photographer Magazine Finalist\, “Male Painted Bunting”\nTexas Artist Exhibition\, Beeville Art Museum\, 2019–2020\nDeWitt County Wildflower Association & Shutterbugs Photography Awards \nKent Ullberg (b.
