We either have wild places or we don't. We admit the spiritual-emotional validity of wild, beautiful places or we don't. We have a philosophy of simplicity of experience in these wild places or we don't. We admit an almost religious devotion to the clean exposition of the wild, natural earth or we don't.

Knowing what I know now, any photographer worth his salt could make some beautiful things with pinhole cameras.

The herculean task of a photographer is to capture a momentary frame as beautiful in reality, as it would be in a dream.

It is all very beautiful and magical here - a quality which cannot be described. You have to live it and breathe it, let the sun bake into you.
