Thanks for sharing this Dor. His photos are particularly extraordinary when you consider the equipment used and the fact all the gear was super heavy and had to be hauled!

  Glad you enjoyed these photos Stacia. I know I did and my husband was enthralled and said they were “incredible.”

Thank you for sharing this. I had never heard of Timothy O’Sullivan, and I found his images beautiful and captivating. Living in the West now, i can see only the merest hints of what he must have seen.

I pant and moan about hauling a tent around, can you imagine toting that equipment and you can’t eat it or sleep in it.

  My little camera and a cell phone are quite enough thanks! You have to give that photographer credit for strength and endurance, to say nothing of great photos huh?
