I met Galen Rowell once at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC. They were having an exhibit of his work.
As a young news photographer, I asked him some questions, but they were technical (what camera, what film, etc). He was obviously disappointed in me for not asking about the PICTURES.
I think back on that and make sure, to this day, always to ask a photographer WHY they took a picture.
I swore that, if I ever got the chance, he would be told how he influenced me.....unfortunately, Galen Rowell was killed in a plane crash before I could do that...but his lesson lives on.

Lets all keep this in mind as we work our way, with Pentax, towards a better K3III
