Maybe somewhat of a provocative topic. You may recall a quip by Brett Weston stating that "anything more than 500 yards from the car just isn't photogenic."
I certainly do a fair amout of roadside/quick-hike photography but for the most part my photographic work is an extension of being in the wilds, often miles away from any road let alone a car.
I'm interested in thoughts on the effect of wilderness and/or solitude on creativity and whether those of you who operate in a similar manner find that your images captured under such conditions differ in style and personal meaning from your "500 yards from the car" work.
