From an interview with Frank Golhke :
‘Art critics say your photographs are meant to challenge the romantic naturalism of Ansel Adams.’
‘That’s a pretty fair statement. When I was coming of age as a photographer, Adams was the great figure in landscape photography. I admired his work, but I didn’t feel as though his vision of nature’s grandeur was something I could believe in. I was more interested in looking at urbanization and the seamless mix between the human world and the natural world.’
