I’ve mentioned him before…
A professional photographer who I am lucky enough to call my friend…
He gave me a gift not too long ago…
A copy of his first book entitled COLD.
It is an amazing collection of astounding artistic photos of Antarctica…
Enough alliteration for you???
SIX THOUSAND copies sold and counting.
This is a book for those who’d like to visit Antarctica and never will… (like me)
This is a book for those interested in Mother Nature, her blessings and cruelty… (the REAL world, you know?)
This is a book to reinforce your amazement at the early explorers’ courage and challenges… (I’m a Shackleton fan myself)
But now…
Now…
He has HOT.
Photographs from the Outback of Australia.
(And I mean Outback…
10,000 kilometers of it…)
Like this one…
Way back when, my father used to say he wanted to tour the Outback on motorcycles… did I want to come?
Sure!
Well, we never did that, nor did we float the Colorado River…
but if he were alive today…
I’d buy him this book.
Not just because the trip captured in this book was a dream for my dad… but also because – uh, I’m in it!!!
Just a tiny bit of it… (see the pdf download here…)
But really…
it is the photographs…
the art…
the sense of looking at things anew…
the everyday scene transformed into a glorious rendition…
the capturing of existence…
of being…
and all done beautifully.
If you like Australia…
the Outback…
cowboys…
Nature…
Buy this book.
Tell him Carol sent you…
