His photographs are very good. My husband is a serious-hobbyist photographer (i.e., spends a lot of money on stuff), and he is really enjoying them.
He really is a quite good photographer and I especially love his outdoor photos. I can no longer get out and hoof it to places I enjoyed photographing as a hobbiest photog but it seems even at 86 that Sowell is still in pretty good physical condition as he mentioned recently going to Yosemite.
