amazing among balance both fine human landscape magical means moment offer platform power provides spiritual stories struck time trade
I think there is something very magical about Telluride and Mountainfilm. Both offer a fine balance among the physical, intellectual and spiritual worlds. The first time we visited, we were struck by the power of the landscape and this amazing gathering. We need to take a moment now and then to trade stories about what it really means to be a human being. Mountainfilm provides the platform for such exchanges.
assistant death entire experience finished friend happened mary suggested taught until worked workshop yosemite
Ansel taught a workshop in Yosemite which I happened to attend. We talked. He suggested I come work for him after I finished school. Ansel was then in his 80s. I was his photographic assistant until his death in 1984, after which I worked with his friend Mary Alinder on Ansel's biography. The entire experience was very much a privilege.
