Sam Leake

I am a fourth generation native Texan although my family’s roots are deeply imbedded in the naval history of England. A love of water is surely part of my DNA.

My photographic images are the result of a fascination with repetitive patterns in nature. Often my images are abstractions derived from reflections on water or glass.

Photography coincides with my other interests: Sculling, fly-fishing, and wildlife. 

These activities provide opportunities to be on or near water and beautiful parts of the planet. Most of my photos are taken where I spend as much time as possible: the Rocky Mountain streams and rivers of Colorado, the lakes of Texas, and the reefs and salt flats of the Caribbean.
