If photographers lose the right to photograph the sort of things those in power do not like, then it will only be a matter of time before your own rights will come under threat.

BECAUSE THEY'RE THERE is a mountain blog by Alen McFadzean about everything relating to the mountains. Alen states his website is for the strugglers, the triers, the quiet though valiant souls who raise their eyes to the mountains and say: “I’m going to climb to the top of that. Even if it kills me.” He has written some wonderful accounts of his adventures and explorations of wild places as well as the lives of those who lived and worked in them. http://becausetheyrethere.wordpress.com/
