Craft & Vision ~ Winter in the Canadian Rockies

Winter in the Canadian Rockies by Darwin Wiggett is the newest ebook to the Craft & Vision library and the latest in the Print & Process series. Darwin captures the spirit of Canada’s most striking mountain range in this monograph of breath-taking landscapes. Photographers of all levels, and geographic persuasion, will find inspiration and insight in this beautiful body of work, and the accompanying discussions, that spans nearly 3 decades.

Darwin discusses in detail the joys and difficulties of working in the cold to capture the abstract and artistic beauty of this magical place. What could be better during these winter months than a great photographer and teacher like Darwin sharing his warm fondness for the coolness of winter?

My personal note on this new ebook: Love it!!! Although we do not have extreme winter conditions in Arizona, I am taken notes on how successful professional photographers archive beautiful images. Darwin’s images are stunning for one thing. I also like how he shared his process on each image published in this ebook.

I also enjoyed Darwin’s honesty: in some cases it took him years to photograph a particular area with a stunning outcome. This gives me peace to know that even successful photographers still refine their process.

I hope you have a chance to download your own copy and read through the PDF, refining your own photography.

Thanks for stopping by today. Remember: God created beauty around us – capture it.

Wonderful E-Book Store

Remember this post? If not, well I had a little challenge with the e-book reader our son gave me to find books for. Christianbook.com added an e-book section to their website. How cool is that!?!

Not only does Christianbook.com support my reader, but almost all readers (Kindle™ devices are not supported). Currently you can find over 9,000 ebooks that range from Bibles, fiction, Christian living and so much more. Can you tell that I am excited 🙂 …
To top off my excitement, Terri Blackstock’s novel “Intervention” can be currently downloaded for free (yes FREE). If you like suspense novel’s Terri’s books are for you. Years ago, I enjoyed Terri’s series “Cape Refuge” in book-format.

Will I completely go to e-books? I don’t think so. I still like to read real books. Not sure why, but there is something special about turning the page of a book; sort of exiting :).

What are you up to this Sunday afternoon? I am getting mentally ready for a newborn session. Butterflies have already assembled in my tummy. Even though I have had several portrait session, every session is unique and I still get nervous. I pray that I will capture some images that my client will enjoy for years to come.

Thanks for stopping in today. Remember: enjoy today and don’t think about what tomorrow may bring.
