"Part personal and artistic biography, part adventure story, part outdoor photography manual, [Mountain Light] is a tour de force. The images are charmed, compelling, imbued with a love ofthe high and wild."

"Galen Rowell has a wonderful combination of qualities—eye, energy, intelligence, sensitivity, courage both physical and moral, and above all, heart. Very seldom have 1 experienced so clearly defined the connection between the artist and what he sees, feels, and does with the work itself" Robert Redford
"Combine a devotion to mountains and wilderness, a sensitivity to the special quality of its pristine light, and a desire to communicate the beauty ofthe natural world, and you'll begin to understand what motivates photographer Galen Rowell. In [Mountain Light], vision and technique arc combined in one long paean to the marvel ofthe earth's wild places."
