Mormons through a new lens

Anyone else see this article in the Trib on photographer Mark Hedengren?

When renowned photographers Ansel Adams and Dorothea Lange ventured into the southern Utah towns of St. George, Gunlock and Toquerville to produce the photo essay “Three Mormon Towns” for LIFE magazine in 1954, the joint project started with a bang. It ended in something of a whimper with limited exposure.
When Provo-based photographer Mark Hedengren picked up the same trail more than 50 years later, by contrast, he couldn’t stop taking pictures.
