Chris’ Image Published in the Wall Street Journal
One my photographs is published in today’s Wall Street Journal:

The photograph also appears in the printed version of the newspaper, on page C9.
My image opens a review of Cheryl Strayed’s new memoir “Wild,” in which she describes her life-changing PCT hike.
I’m so excited to share the beauty of the PCT with a national audience!

Congratulations, that’s exciting!
Thank you, it is indeed!
I saw the article this morning, and recognized the photo. Love it!
Congratulations! I can’t wait to read your book. ;)
Thanks Sasha! Dave mentioned it on Facebook too — I was thinking you two might read the Journal. I’m glad you got to see it in print. I’m excited to create a book!
Congratulations! Beautiful site and great photographic eye!
Thank you Cindy! Anna and I will definitely keep up our hard work on the blog, and there will be much more photography to come, too.
nice job and great photo
Thanks Jason, cheers!
Nice going, Chris.
Thanks Noah! Your beard shows up here…
Wow! Congratulations Chris! I hope you are keeping a bio of all the different places your photographs are appearing. Kudos!
Thanks Mags! Yes, I have been keeping a list which goes all the way back to when a photo of mine appeared in the Swarthmorean. The circulation of that is a bit smaller though, haha.
Nice pics; I’m envious!
But, I still think it would be easier to start in Canada and walk downhill!
Thanks Jerry! And I wish we had considered that downhill approach. But it’s too late now to change our plans. Haha.
THIS IS AMAZING!! CONGRATS, CHRIS!! beautiful photo, so glad WSJ thought so too…
Thank you Joe! Congrats on your Canon shoot, too. See you soon!
Steve and I loved it, too. We framed it and have it in our exercise room with all of our other world travel treasures. Good luck with the hike; we’ll be following along.
You’re new home looks like a great choice.
That is awesome, thanks Carol. It would be fun to visit you and Steve and check out your travel treasures next time I’m in Swarthmore. Thanks for your support!
It was great to see you two in Indy last month – including the day this photo came out! Big congratulations! A few days later I heard part of an interview with Cheryl Strayed on the Diane Rehm Show – pretty fascinating – including her story of losing one of her hiking boots over the edge, then flinging its now-useless mate after it … and how she carried on after that. You can listen to the whole show here – http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2012-03-28/cheryl-strayed-wild-lost-found-pacific-crest-trail. I think you’ll enjoy it. Have a wonderful walk – I look forward to all your stories and photos.
Thanks so much, Rachel! We are really hoping we don’t lose any shoes. Ha. Thanks for the link, we enjoyed listening. And she’s right about duct tape being the best thing ever invented.
