Alright, so this isn't strictly about photography but famous photographers are mentioned. Better yet, it's a great story.
The New York Times issue of Friday, May 1, has a story about the disappearance of Everett Ruess in 1934 and the apparent solution to the riddle of what happened to him.
Ruess was a young poet and writer, friend of Ansel Adams and Dorothea Lange and also an "Into the Wild" sort of fellow.
It's online here.
The photo above is Ruess by Lange, with a photographic superimposition of skeletal remains found in southern Utah.
Darn, now I've given away the whole story.
