Ansel Adams?famously said that the photographic negative is like a composer's score, and the print?a performance. This axiom well describes Adams' influence on the work of Don Kirby, whose masterful printing technique emphasizes a strong graphic impact, meticulous texture, and poetic sensitivity. ?Here the rocks at Bandon, OR merge from the distance in arial perspective until the nearest looms with graphic clarity on a section of reflected sky like a fallen meteorite.
