You Only Get One Sunrise And One

My Advice For Climbers Or Photographers Is To Really Tune Into Your Own Passions And Not Just What Other People Are Doing Or Aren't Doing. Figure Out What Works For You, What Turns You On, What Gives You The Greatest Amount Of Energy And Feeling Of Satisfaction.

I Began Taking Pictures In The Natural World To Be Able To Show People What I Was Experiencing When I Climbed And Explored In Yosemite In The High Sierra.

The Most Interesting Parts Of The Natural World Are The Edges, Places Where Ocean Meets Land, Meadow Meets Forest, Timberline Touches The Heights.

One Of The Biggest Mistakes A Photographer Can Make Is To Look At The Real World And Cling To The Vain Hope That Next Time His Film Will Somehow Bear A Closer Resemblance To It...if We Limit Our Vision To The Real World, We Will Forever Be Fighting On The Minus Side Of Things, Working Only Too Make Our Photographs Equal To What We See Out There, But No Better.

And Most Of My Early Pictures Failed But About One In A 100 Somehow Looked Better Than What I Saw.
