On They Are Stealing Our Work, February 6, 2012
One should keep in mind that not ALL use is infringement. There is, and has been, a "fair abridgement" (fair use) doctrine in copyright in the US dating back through English Common Law to Gyles vs. Wilcox in 1740. If you are going after offenders, You must first establish whether it is fair use, according to the US courts. If it is fair use, you have no case.

On The Essential Landscape: Don't Be An Idiot, February 6, 2012
Interesting comments. My background is in art and photography going back to the 1970's when I tromped around the Owens Valley and other areas with a 4x5. I actually attended a real art school.

On Holding Out For A Hero, February 21, 2012
<blockquote>Here is a man who took tens of thousands of pictures a year and only figured he made a hero image once a month at best.</blockquote> The best one could state is that he took tens of thousand of images in his lifetime. He didn't carry a 35mm but an 8X10, so to manage tens of thousands of images per year would take a support crew. Even if we accept just 10,000 images per year that is 27 per day every day of the year. Quite an accomplishment. According to Adams himself, during a workshop visit to his home, I remember that his entire archive holds &a
