The Legacy of Ansel Adams: Debuts and Burdens

A generous reappraisal of Ansel Adams as a (landscape)
photographer and ecological forerunner. Analyzing Adams as a
Western hero (carrying a camera instead of a gun and facing a
great threat the loss of wilderness fighting from a position of
moral strength), the author argues that 'the real challenge for
landscape photographers today is not to discover new wilderness
places, but to explore new wilderness values'.
