The Mississippi Delta is a mythical place, filled to the brim with characters and stories that have helped shape America as we know it. Memphis photographer Jeane Umbreit manages to capture the ethereal appeal of the Deep South in these layered, double exposed images of landscapes, people, and wildlife. The photos, shot along the highway south of Memphis, are digitally enhanced to deliver a painterly representation of her “vision of this small, mystical land called the delta.”
