Jay Maisel's quote is spot on. I often get frustrated when the light is not as I want or expect. But, as the photographer, it's on me to take all the ingredients (light, subject, gear, etc.) and blend them together to create the best photograph possible.
Exactly right! With all the planning I do for backpacking I tend to get caught up in the photos I WANT to make, rather than just being receptive to the conditions I encounter.
