working on this photograph reminded me about the book i have, called "reconstructing the view". photographers Mark Klett and Byron Wolfe created a project of reconstructing Ansel Adams Grand Canyon portfolio. inspired by their work, I felt like this image resembled their work. I felt so connected to this scene. and now I am even more connected to this photograph. i feel like parts of me traveled back in time to stand there right next to Ansel. it's new and old. Ansel and I.
