“I tried to keep both arts alive, but the camera won.
I found that while the camera does not express the soul,
perhaps a photograph can!”

I shall focus with photographs.
When images become inadequate,
I shall be content with silence.”

Ansel Adams once wrote:
“When words become unclear,
I shall focus with photography.
When images become inadequate,
I shall be content with silence.”
My aim is to avoid silence.

The only things in my life that compatibly exist with this grand universe
are the creative works of the human spirit…I think of a mantra of Gaelic origin
given to me fifty years ago…it echoes everything I believe:
I know that I am one with beauty
and that my comrades are one.
Let our souls be mountains,
Let our spirits be stars,
Let our hearts be worlds.

Stopping for Lunch Along the Trail — Mammoth Lakes Revisited Leave a comment

Photo: Ken & Joy at Rainbow Falls. (To see additional photos, click here. )
This posting first appeared, August, 2006.
So much to see, so little time in the eastern Sierra Nevada. Before leaving the Mammoth Lakes area, Rosalie and Jerry were kind enough to hike with us to the Devils Postpile and Rainbow Falls. There are many beautiful sights to see from the trail, many of which were first seen from the many Ansel Adams photos taken here. We stopped for a trail lunch at the base of the falls.

Digital Photography 101 — Education & Recreation Series 2 comments
(Images by Joy)
It’s been almost a year since I’ve taught a class, so it was nice to be sharing my photography knowledge and experience with some of my neighbors in Tanuri Ridge. Two Saturday mornings ago, Joy and I hosted one of the Tanuri Ridge Education & Recreation Series, in which I was providing some basics in digital cameras and photography. I will continue to offer photography related classes, neighbors, and friends as long as there is an interest. Additionally, I will continue to do one-on-one tutorials to help people in capturing their own memorial moments.

Becoming is Superior to Being 
David Fitzsimmons, Arizona Daily Star
“Much of the West is now a giant tinderbox, literally ready to combust. Yet thanks to fire suppression, the consequences have been postponed for decades.
“When you look at the long record, you see fire and climate moving together over decades, over centuries, over thousands of years,” said pyrogeographer Jennifer Marlon of Yale University, who earlier this year co-authored a study of long-term fire patterns in the American West.
“Then, when you look at the last century, you see the climate getting warmer and drier, but until the last couple decades the amount of fire was really low. We’ve pushed fire in the opposite direction you’d expect from climate,” Marlon said.
The fire debt is finally coming due.”
