Since I posted about (generally) being the only female photographer in the pre-dawn pack in the national parks, I have run across some admirable work of other women shooters. So I'm starting a new section of this blog, my own personal fanzine for all the girls out there.
Elizabeth Carmel
The April 2007 issue of Outdoor Photographer had a feature on Elizabeth Carmel and her work in the eastern Sierras. Gorgeous landscapes, the kind you get by hauling heavy gear through the dark in bear country, only to get skunked by the wind, a contrail, sudden cloudburst, so you go again. And again.
She's been recognized by Hasselblad with one of their annual Masters Awards, "in recognition of her beautiful imagery and technical expertise.
I'll be looking for her book, Brilliant Waters: Portraits of Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, and the High Sierra. In the meantime, you can check out her website and her blog.
