Landscape & Nature Photographer David Muench Shares his Photography Portfolio: The Wind River Range
David Muench is legendary in the American landscape photography community. For 50 years he has explored the United States capturing the land and wilderness with his 4x5 view camera. He has discovered and photographed a diverse range of unique and beautiful locations, many captured with a camera for the first time. Some of David's discoveries are popular locations with landscape photographers today. In this video David will discuss his portfolio: The Wind River Range
Davids biography begins in the Sierras, as a child on pack trips with his parents, his father the noted landscape photography pioneer; Joseph Muench and his mother, a writer. These first views were David's introduction to wild places that became the subject for my own photography, but more than that, the places that have offered him a lifetime of solace, of adventure, of joy.
As a child, David watched his father his father photograph and that led him into is own photographic work. David helped helped his father do his photography work . . . as a young child as his model and as a teenager, helping him print his black and white photographs.
David made his first photographs as a teenager in the late 1950s, and had his first photographs published as front and back covers of Arizona Highways when Raymond Carlson was editor, and David was still in high school. For David, there was never any question of his career. He attended Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY, and the Los Angeles Art Center School of Design, both experiences providing him with the formality of a degree in photography, and an understanding of the technology of the time, but he felt -- and continues to feel -- that his most profound learning experiences were in the field. Even now, as the technology of photography explodes in directions undreamed of in his early days, David continues to learn, to expand in new directions, and it is nature that remains his teacher.
David's work has been shown in numerous exhibitions, including Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Phoenix Art Museum, Center for Creative Photography, Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff , but what is his most enduring are the more than 50 exhibit format books he's photographed and published published. The books allow him to share in depth the subjects -- the landscapes -- that inspire him. Two of these (and a number of articles) have been done with his wife, the writer Ruth Rudner.
He is among the archived photographers at the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona, Tucson, short-listed for this honor by Ansel Adams, founder, with John Schaefer, of the CCP.
As a two-time Canon Explorer of Light, David worked with the Canon Systems cameras that were the mainstay of his 35mm work. Participation in a UNESCO/Panasonic sponsored project to photograph World Heritage Sites propelled him into learning to photograph with digital cameras. He revels in the freedom these cameras bring. But, for him, photography—with any kind of camera-- is a matter of seeing.
Perhaps, for David, all of life is that, which makes his biography quite simple! He photographs as he sees and he sees what is wild. David says he cares that his photography speaks for the wild beauty he treasures and cares that his children, Zandria and Marc, both photographers, continue that legacy.
Do biographies have a beginning and an end? Or do they simply have a continuing mission in the work one does . . . . for David, the journey continues . . .
Our interview series with David began on 2012 as he chronicles a life in the wild and with a camera. Please enjoy our conversation with David Muench: a national treasure!

Places to see in ( Tucson - USA )
Places to see in ( Tucson - USA )
Tucson is the second-largest city in the state of Arizona, in the United States of America. At an elevation of 2,400 feet, it has slightly cooler temperatures than its desert cousin, Phoenix. It is situated in the biologically diverse Sonoran Desert. With a population of 486,699 (2000 Census) in Tucson and 843,746 in the greater metro area, which also includes Marana, Oro Valley, Green Valley, Sahuarita, Drexel Heights, Vail, South Tucson.
Tucson has always been a crossroads. Until recently, water was relatively plentiful in Tucson, in spite of its location in the middle of a desert. This made it an important travel route, an agricultural center, and a communications nexus. Tucson's history is ancient, with evidence of human occupation stretching back 10,000 years. Between A.D. 200 and 1450, the Hohokam culture dominated the area -- the Pima and Tohono O'Odham peoples that still occupy the area are descendants of the Hohokam. In 1699, Father Eusebio Kino, S.J., established the Mission San Xavier del Bac, southwest of present-day Tucson. Over the next 100 years, other missions were established in the area, but European presence was minimal.
It wasn't until 1775 that the Presidio of Tucson was created by Don Hugo O'Connor. At that time, it was the northernmost Spanish outpost in the New World. In 1821, Tucson became part of the new country of Mexico, and in 1853 it became part of the United States as a result of the Gadsden Purchase. In 1863, Arizona became a US territory, and by 1880, its population was around 8,000. In 1912, Arizona became the 48th state to enter the union. Today, Tucson is still a crossroads, with European, Native American, Mexican, and Asian cultures bumping into one another, in sometimes conflicting and sometimes compatible -- but always interesting -- ways.
A college town with a long history, Tucson (too-sawn) is attractive, fun-loving and one of the most culturally invigorating places in the Southwest. Set in a flat valley hemmed in by snaggletoothed mountains and swaths of saguaro, Arizona's second-largest city smoothly blends American Indian, Spanish, Mexican and Anglo traditions. Distinct neighborhoods and 19th-century buildings give a rich sense of community and history not found in the more modern, sprawling Phoenix. The eclectic shops toting vintage garb, scores of funky restaurants and dive bars don't let you forget Tucson is a college town at heart, home turf to the 40,000-strong University of Arizona (UA).

Legendary Landscape Photographer David Muench Presents his Portfolio on New Mexicos Organ Mountains
Legendary Landscape Photographer David Muench presents his Portfolio on New Mexico's Organ Mountains. David is legendary in the American landscape photography community. For 50 years he has explored the United States capturing the land with his 4x5 view camera.
He has discovered and photographed a diverse range of unique and beautiful locations, many captured with his camera for the first time. Some of David's discoveries are popular locations with landscape photographers today. In our latest interview with David Muench, he presents his portfolio of photographs from New Mexico's Organ Mountains.
The Organ Mountains is an arid and dry desert region with sand dunes, abundant flora and fauna, wildlife, and is being considered as a National Monument. Davids images show a masterful use of composition, lighting, and framing.
David first photographed the Organ Mountains region in the 1960's and has returned many times to this area to capture its stunning beauty. The Organ Mountains is a land rich in scenic beauty and pre-American, New Mexican, and American history. The area includes training sites for the Apollo Space Mission, Billy the Kid's Outlaw Rock, the Butterfield Stagecoach Trail ran through the area as well as Geronimo's Cave, some World War II aerial targets, and thousands of Native American Petroglyph's and Pictographs.

[Wikipedia] John Gutmann
John Gutmann (1905 – June 12, 1998) was a German-born American photographer and painter.
A painter turned photographer, Gutmann began working as a photojournalist in 1933 for Presse-Photo. Being Jewish, in 1936 he fled Nazi Germany to the United States where he worked as a photographer for various German magazines, signing on with Pix Publishing, an agency he worked with for over twenty years. Gutmann's main subject matter was the American way of life, especially the Jazz music scene. Gutmann is recognized for his unique worm's-eye view camera angle.
He enjoyed taking photos of ordinary things and making them seem special.
He created the John Gutmann Photography Fellowship Award, through the San Francisco Foundation.
The full archive of Gutmann's work is located at the Center for Creative Photography (CCP) at the University of Arizona in Tucson, which also manages the copyright of his work.

Artist's Talk and Book Signing: José Galvez
On Monday, March 19, 2012 in the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona, prize-winning photojournalist José Galvez discusses his career documenting the everyday lives of Latinos in the United States, with special focus on his new work from the South. Born into the Mexican barrios of Tucson, Galvez entered the building of the Arizona Daily Star carrying his shoeshine box when he was 10 years old. He became a permanent fixture in the newsroom and bought a camera at a pawn shop in high school. Galvez majored in journalism at the University of Arizona and became a staff photographer at the Star, where he focused his lens on his home -- the barrios of Tucson -- and the Mexican-American people who lived, worked and loved there. Galvez became the first Mexican-American photographer on the staff of the Los Angeles Times, and in 1984, he and his Chicano colleagues there won a Pulitzer Prize for a series on Latino life in Southern California. Galvez served as senior photo editor and contributor to Americanos, a multimedia exhibition documenting Latino life in the United States led by Edward James Olmos. In 2000, he published his first solo book, Vatos, a collaboration with esteemed poet Luis Alberto Urrea. In Beloved Land, he and famed oral historian Patricia Martin explored the lives of Mexican pioneer ranchers in the American Southwest. In 2004 Galvez and his family moved to North Carolina to photograph Hispanic immigration in the South. His photographs have been exhibited internationally in galleries and museums, including the Smithsonian Institution.
