I'm in the painful process of culling my book collection and thought this particular book would be easy to cull: just another book of pretty pictures of coastlines etc. Instead, as I actually read it in more detail, I realised that it was a collection of the most iconic photos and photographers in Australia. Names like Olive Cotton, Peter Dombrovskis, Harold Cazneaux, Frank Hurley..and there is a photograph there that I have long attributed to Hurley....the photo of a ship in Antarctica taken from inside an ice cavern. (This was actually taken by Herbert Ponting in 1910). Lovely photos. Fairly large format (A4) And I can't bring myself to donate this book to charity just yet. Maybe I'll come back to look at the pictures again (though time is running out!!). Five stars from me. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Australia's Wild Places celebrates the Australian landscape photographers whose works capture and encapsulate the essence of their country. From the drama of bush scapes to the untouched rocky crags of Western Australia and the serenity of the Tasmanian rainforest, the works collected here trace the development of photogrpahy and a nation's environmental awareness from the early 1800s to the present day. Drawing on the extensive collection of the National Library of Australia, Australia's Wild Places highlights the fingerprints humans have left on our landscape through the lenses of some of Australia's greatest photographers.
