The Skies And Land Are So Enormous,

To Photograph Truthfully And Effectively Is To See Beneath The Surfaces.

Notebook. No Photographer Should Be Without One!

Wilderness Is Rapidly Becoming One Of Those Aspects Of The American Dream Which Is More Of The Past Than Of The Present. Wilderness Is Not Only A Condition Of Nature, But A State Of Mind And Mood And Heart. It Cannot Be Confined To The Museum-case Status—seen Only As A Passing Diorama From Superlative Throughways.

You Don't Make A Photograph Just With A Camera. You Bring To The Act Of Photography All The Pictures You Have Seen, The Books You Have Read, The Music You Have Heard, The People You Have Loved.

Photography Is An Investigation Of Both The Outer And The Inner Worlds. The First Experiences With The Camera Involve Looking At The World Beyond The Lens, Trusting The Instrument Will 'capture' Something 'seen.' The Terms Shoot And Take Are Not Accidental; They Represent An Attitude Of Conquest And Appropriation. Only When The Photographer Grows Into Perception And Creative Impulse Does The Term Make Define A Condition Of Empathy Between The External And The Internal Events.
