scott calhoun is a photographer who uses his writing as an accompaniment for his photos. in the article "a lake of pure sunshine" calhoun recalls a trip he took hunting poppy's and other wild flowers in the california outdoors.
his writing documents the highlights of his trips and refers to not only what he is taking a picture, but also other things that happen along his adventure. my favorite part of the article is what he said referring to the motels that he stayed in and how they always smell like smoke, even when you choose a non-smoking room. this adds humor to the article and explains his entire experience in a way that you can relate to it. when describing the wildlife he uses detail in the imagery to show exactly what he was seeing at the time when he went to go photograph.
