You can buy Doug's pictures as yummy prints and admire them without
distraction. I have a couple of larger ones and the quality, holding them
right there in your hand, is superb.
You can get a sampling by buying his calendar or I also recommend Doug's
superb book, 'Wild light  1971 to 2007' from Blurb. The presentation is
excellent, the content of course is a delight and there is enough both back
story and technical reference (adjacent but not on the photos) to add extra
interest as well.
