Re: Larry Janss’ April 29 commentary, “Ansel Adams captured light and a boy’s heart�:
Like Larry Janss, I, too, am captivated by the light and natural beauty of Yosemite National Park. This time of year, I hunger to see the towering granite cliffs and hear the thundering waterfalls. So in mid-May, my wife and I will return for our 19th wedding anniversary to celebrate our marriage in the chapel there. As always, I will visit the Ansel Adams Gallery, again rejoice in the images he created, and celebrate an anniversary dinner at the Ahwahnee Hotel.
This time, however, will be different.
I will also reflect upon the early Janss boyhood, his meeting with Adams, the mentoring relationship that ensued and the legacy that continues to enrich my spirit through Janss’s own work. The stunning imagery of Adams and Janss is mental and spiritual nutrition for me.
