That would be "annals" Ken ... unless you used the body part on

Regarding Galen Rowell:  What he lacked in specific photographic
technical skills, he made up for in other areas which will allow
his reputation to transend generations.  He will remain one of
the all-time greatest "Adventure Photographers".  I think that
most of his stuff had little to do with specific artistic or
technical talent (he learned through the years what worked and
didn't work) than with "being there" with the right mental
working attitude.

Will he go down in the anals of time and be referenced in the
same breath as Ansel Adams or Monet?  Hardly.  In no one single
category did he excell, but as a package, he truely was great.
