Herb Ringer's AMERICAN WEST
YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK...
in the late 1940s
Herb and his parents spent almost a month at Yosemite National Park in the late 1940s. They pitched their tent at Curry Camp.
These
two views, from Glacier Point, reveal Herb in full cowboy attire as
Half Dome looms in the distance. And (above) part of the campground on
the valley floor.
HERB
RINGER came West from his home in New Jersey in 1939. He never
lookedback. With camera in hand, Herb photographed the American West,
from the CanadianBorder to the Rio Grande and from the Big Sur coast to
the High Plains.
We
believe Herb's collection of Life in the West is one of the finest.
His work has been published in The Zephyr for 20 years. I am pleased
finally, to offer Herb's photographs in color. We are also building a
new 'album'of his work, elsewhere on this site.
My dear friend died on December 11,1998...JS
