Maggiori informazioni sul libro
With over seventy photographs, this collection showcases Tom Jacobi’s stunning images of the natural world’s wonders. Captured early in the morning, these photographs reveal majestic landscapes in a reduced color palette, highlighting their power and beauty. Jacobi traveled for two years across six continents—North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica—to capture the distinct natural beauty of each region. One notable photograph from Namibia’s Deadvlei clay pan features two dark, dead camel thorn trees against a stark white clay backdrop. Another image from Western Australia’s Wave Rock depicts what looks like a frozen wall of water, while New Zealand’s Otago Coast showcases perfectly round moeraki boulders at twilight. Iceland’s Kirkjufell Mountain, featured on the cover, requires calm conditions for its reflection, emphasizing the photographer's mindfulness. American landscapes, including Mono Lake, Death Valley, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley, and Arches National Park, are also highlighted. Jacobi’s work transforms our perception of nature from detached observation to a deeper appreciation of time and place, fostering a sense of “pure introspection,” as noted by Bryan Adams in the foreword.
