Why the Mountain Wins Every Time (And How to Stop Fighting It)
There’s a quote I’ve carried with me for twenty years. Early in my career, I was complaining to a mentor about a shoot that had gone sideways. Bad weather, wrong light, three hours of driving for nothing. He looked at me and said, “The mountain doesn’t care about your schedule.” I laughed at the time. Now I think about it on almost every shoot I do. Mountains are the most humbling subject in landscape photography.
