Tom Reimchen has kindly allowed Anna Gustafson to incorporate some of his data and published material, in her ongoing series of paintings, We Felt So Rich.  The telling of these stories is made more compelling by the integration of archival images* with current science.

  • eagle, photographs, Eadweard Muybridge, 1880s
