Colorado Wild: An Intimate Portrait of the Centennial State - Close-up and macro photography of wildflowers, lakes, rivers, aspen trees & leaves, fall . ghost buildings and towns, refelctions

Colorado is a land of tall mountain peaks, immense canyons, and vast, rolling plains. Often lost in these enormous settings are the smaller details that make up the landscape. In Colorado Wild, renowned nature photographer Grant Collier shows that these intimate scenes are no less beautiful than the larger ones. He uncovers the amazing beauty that lies within such overlooked objects as dew drops on a leaf, bark on a tree, or thorns on a rosebush. In doing so, Collier transports you to an extraordinary and sometimes alien world of nature on a miniature scale. Grant also includes wider landscape photos to provide context and offer a more complete view of the state.

This book measures 8.5" x 6.5" and has 64 pages.
