"Stunning imagery takes readers on an impressive visual journey."
-- Library Journal, Starred Review
A superb portfolio of pictures by one of Canada''s greatest photographers.
Canada''s landscape is like no other. Its sheer diversity is staggering: vast prairies and forests, impressive coastlines, majestic inland lakes and rivers, and urban parklands. Each season adds its own dimension of beauty.
As much as it reveals the geography of a country, landscape photography also documents the random events, whether fleeting or grand, that capture the essence of a country.
This magnificent collection spans 20 years of the work of Canada''s renowned landscape photographer, J.A. Kraulis: a flash of lightning exploding across a summer sky; a sudden winter storm descending on an otherwise tranquil coastal bay; the surface of a lake, caught in a moment of stillness, mirroring the world around it.
These 200 handsome colour photographs record the vast and beautiful Canadian landscape. They tell the tale not only of a country, but also of the photographer''s inspiring relationship with it.
