rasshole said Glorious pictures. I bought this book as a Christmas gift for a friend who is a talented amateur photographer. He was enthralled and when he put it down to get a drink, I grabbed it. It wasn't pretty after that.. Boring, considering price. Terry Brooks Too many photos seem similar. Not enough detailed descriptions relating to significance of subject matter.
