Signed and inscribed by the Author/Artist. Oblong quarto, red cloth & yellow boards (hardcover), gilt letters, unpaginated. Illustrated with full-color plates. Fine (As New) in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: For prize-winning photographer John Moran, the act of photography is about "being in love with where you are." Journal of light caps his twenty-year odyssey to discover the soul of one of the most photographed states in the country. Moran has sought a vision of natural Florida as it must have appeared to Ponce de Leon and other early strangers in paradise. This collection brings together some of his best-known and favorite images. Companion essays reflect Moran's philosophy about both nature and photography, weaving together personal narrative, natural history, and photo-technical instruction. They include commentary about the actual moment he snapped each picture, factual information about the place, and sometimes a historical perspective on the setting by such well-known writers and naturalists as William Bartram and Archie Carr. A tribute to what so many have called paradise, Journal of Light is a celebration of Florida's wild side, connecting us to the possiblities found in land, water, and sky.
