I don't think he was a pompous twit. I think he was a darn fine
photographer
with a unique vision and style. Someone not easy to dismiss and
someone who
will be long remembered by many people.
I don't understand why anyone would find him pompous, let alone a
twit. I admit to never having met the guy, but he certainly didn't
cloud his photography with philosophical new age mumbo jumbo and
mysticism as often seen when other, less talented
(outdoor)photographers trying to explain their "art". Rowell based his
vision of sound scientific facts and he basically tried to make
pleasing and effective images with no mysteries involved.

I'd rather read Rowell than Rockwell any time. People actually buy
Rowell's books. Rockwell has to give his prose away for free on his
website, and it's still vastly overpriced. :-)
