DELTA TIME is a photographic journey through the poorest communities of the Mississippi delta. As the photographs reveal, there are certain consistencies in this work; the vistas and the business of cotton, framing every stage of life; the crumbling shacks that serve as homes; the faces of individuals who have faith and determination or resignation, and the community of people that we call the DELTA.

These photographs have recently been published as DELTA TIME by the Smithsonian Institution Press and is available in book stores or by calling 1-800-782-4612.

You can select any image, or if you have a fast 

connection or patience you can view all the images at once.
