The eye of
his camera in
timeless juxtapose  
finds the meaning
of the life
we live..
two children
emerging from a
dark forest place
find a lighted
garden of discovery..
A country doctor
braces from wind
rendering service to
those caught in
that same forest..
his wish to
rescue childhood
which now weighs
distant and dim...
For his groundbreaking 1948 LIFE magazine photo essay, β€œCountry Doctor” photographer W. Eugene Smith spent 23 days in Kremmling, Colorado, chronicling the day-to-day challenges faced by an indefatigable general practitioner named Dr. Ernest Ceriani.
