I've been photographing my outdoor experiences first through slides and now digitally since 1974. Photography has been one of my main forms of artistic expression though I've been on careful guard not to let it dominate my wilderness experience. If the camera had never been invented I'd still be out trying my best to appreciate each outdoor moment. If we are lucky 10 short 10 year segments is about all we can hope for. I'm happy how I have used mine so far, and I hope that you are too. Cheers!
