商品描述

Spanning across the borders of four states is the Colorado Plateau, a region that boasts an amazing diversity of landforms. Over the past forty years, master photographer Bruce Barnbaum has visited this region repeatedly—sometimes several times a year, often staying as long as a month each time. During these visits he has discovered an endless array of awe-inspiring subjects to photograph.

Although widely known for his black-and-white images, Barnbaum has been quietly capturing color images all along. Finally, these stunning images have been published in his first book of color photographs.

Photographed with the eye of a true artist are the remarkable colors of Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, Factory Butte, Colorado River Plateau, White Cliffs, Painted Desert, and so many other locations. Barnbaum's images reveal the hues and layers of the various minerals found throughout the region and the breathtaking landforms that were created over millions of years of faulting, folding, uplifting, and being buried under seas.

In a series of short essays throughout the book, Barnbaum shares his stories, thoughts, and feelings about this majestic territory—from his first introduction to the "Canyon Country" in 1975, when it was little-known and rarely photographed, through the changes he witnessed over the years as more and more people visited the area, and finally to the irreversible effects the multitudes have had on it.

These 95 full-page color photographs, each with an accompanying description, are certain to captivate, inspire, and above all, encourage a new appreciation of the wonder of our planet.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

跨越四個州界的科羅拉多高原是一個擁有驚人地形多樣性的地區。在過去的四十年裡,攝影大師布魯斯·巴恩鮑姆多次造訪這個地區,有時一年幾次,每次通常停留一個月。在這些訪問中,他發現了無數令人驚嘆的攝影主題。

儘管以其黑白影像而聞名,巴恩鮑姆一直在悄悄地拍攝彩色影像。最終,這些令人驚嘆的影像被收錄在他的第一本彩色攝影集中。

這本書以真正藝術家的眼光捕捉了安特羅皮峽谷、馬蹄灣、工廠丘、科羅拉多河高原、白崖、彩繪沙漠等地的非凡色彩。巴恩鮑姆的影像展示了該地區各種礦物質的色調和層次,以及在數百萬年的斷層、褶皺、隆起和被海洋掩埋的過程中形成的令人驚嘆的地形。

在整本書中的一系列短文中,巴恩鮑姆分享了他對這片壯麗領土的故事、思考和感受——從他在1975年首次接觸到這個鮮為人知且很少被攝影的“峽谷國家”,到多年來越來越多的人造訪該地區所帶來的變化,最終到大量人群對該地區產生的不可逆轉的影響。

這本書包含了95張全頁彩色照片,每張照片都附有描述,必定能夠迷住、激發並最重要的是,讓人對我們星球的奇妙產生新的欣賞。
