My Mountaineering Skills Are Not Important To

A Lot Of People Think That When You Have Grand Scenery, Such As You Have In Yosemite, That Photography Must Be Easy.

When I Go To The Mountains, I Intuitively Know My Place In The World Much Better Through These Experiences. The More Intense They Are, The Better I Know Myself, And The More I Am Able To Challenge Myself.

My First Thought Is Always Of Light.

You Only Get One Sunrise And One Sunset A Day, And You Only Get So Many Days On The Planet. A Good Photographer Does The Math And Doesn't Waste Either.

I Find It Some Of The Hardest Photography And The Most Challenging Photography I've Ever Done. It's A Real Challenge To Work With The Natural Features And The Natural Light.
