Book - Catching the Light

Hi forum

I am pleased to be able to invite all of you to have a look at my book entitled 'Catching the Light'.

The book has been published through an on line printing company called Blurb. Whilst it does make the book expensive, it is the only way at present that I am able to publish my story of the Drakensberg.

The book has been twenty years in the making, and follows my photographic and hiking journey through these mountains. It does not provide a blow by blow account of all my trips, however I have included ones that I thought were note worthy. The images follow the seasons starting with Autumn and as each season unfolds, the images splash the pages with their specific colour palette. I have also interwoven the story with some personal and philosophical views of mountains and the reasons for going up there, and some hilarious stories as well.

I suppose the books main story as seen through the images, is the constant striving for excellence in the art of scenic photography and the attempt to capture the nuances of light that fall on this beautiful part of the world. You can navigate to the book by following the link below.

Nice work!

Nice! That cover photo looks somewhat familiar

Thanks guys. The book took about 16 months to put together with proof reading by my wife and Brad aka ST². So a big thanks to them as well.

I am not making anything on the book as I think that it is expensive enough as it is, given the once off nature of the printing, and also the value of the R vs $.

Some good time those dude.
Looking forward to this month. Got some SNOW!

What a beautiful book - many congratulations.

Here is the new link for my book.

What a stunning book, captures the Drakensberg beautifully!

A must have! Think I need to invest in one for my coffee table...
