Thank you Yao @yaorenliu for hosting the last artist challenge, and especially for selecting Fan Ho. I’m sure I wasn’t alone in not having heard of him before, a most excellent choice.
I was a fan of Galen Rowell’s images back when I was shooting film. Back in my analog days I had a subscription to Outdoor Photography. That is where I learned of him and also of his untimely death in a plane crash back in 2002.
You can see some of his images here:

Here’s a link to some information about him:

I know a lot of his shots are from mountains, and not everyone has a mountain in their back yard. Some of his images are more land based, all are inspiring.
The contest begins now and will run through to Noon EST August 9.

Whoa -- we go from Fan Ho with his B&W images to the bold colors I saw in the quick foray I made into the website you provide a link to. @northy are you gritting your teeth right now?
