“My interest in photography did not begin with books or mentors, or with any burning desire to see the world through a camera. It evolved from an intense devotion to mountains and wilderness that eventually shaped all the parts of my life and brought them together.” WorldBookTogetherDesireInterestMountainPhotographyCamerasPhotographerDevotionIntenseBurningWildernessMentorBurning Desire Author:Galen Rowell
“At the heart of all photography is an urge to express our deepest personal feelings - to reveal our inner, hidden selves, to unlock the artist. Those of us who become photographers are never satisfied with just looking at someone else's expression of something that is dear to us. We must produce our own images, instead of buying postcards and photo books. We seek to make our own statements of individuality.” HeartBookSelfFeelingsArtistProduceExpressionPhotographyPhotographerDearIndividualitySatisfiedStatementsBuyingUrgesPostcardsPersonal Feelings Author:Galen Rowell
