Landscape Photographer Larry Burton Dies

“Larry Burton earned degrees in electrical engineering, physics and pure mathematics, then decided he’d rather earn his living outdoors. For 35 years he did, hauling his 4-by-5 camera — one of the old boxlike cameras with a cloth to cover the photographer’s head — around the state and its two national parks, taking pictures that would grace many a Montana, Glacier and Yellowstone calendar.” This tribute by Vince Devlin of the Missoula Montana Missoulian includes an example of Burton’s characteristically dramatic photograpy.
