Editorial Reviews:

This book of exquisite photographs arises from the premise that unless we love nature, we will not work to save it from exploitation and eventual destruction. The rich mixture of photographs, Zen poems, and essays presented on these pages is intended to open our hearts to the wild and the wilderness, and to direct us to the ways in which we can heal the earth.
The Zen master John Daido Loori, who is widely known for his efforts to make creative expression an integral part of spiritual practice, here inaugurates a new art form: Zen photography. It’s a modern continuation of an ancient tradition that looks to art as an expression of the enlightened mind. The camera thus becomes a contemporary version of the Zen brush, as Loori captures moments of exceptional, unrepeatable beauty. Each image is a seed for contemplation.

Summary: Gorgeous nature photos
Comment: This book of nature photographs is just what I needed amidst all of the reports of anthrax, terrorism, etc. The essays and photo descriptions (reminiscent of haiku) are inspiring, and photos of nature (especially the rock forms) are incredibly beautiful. Several people who saw the book decided to purchase it for themselves.
