Short description:
Cactus flowers are jewels of the desert - they add brilliant pops of colour to our arid surroundings. In this book, photographer John Schaefer brings the unexpected beauty of the cactus flower to the page. Hundreds of photographs of cactus flowers native to the US Southwest and Mexico offer a visual feast of colour and texture, nuance and light.
MoreLong description:
These stunning photographs allow us to appreciate the spectacular range of color and form cactus flowers have to offer. For the cactus enthusiast, the book offers a comprehensive collection of high-quality flower photographs unlike any other. The photographs cover more than 250 cactus species organized by genus. The book starts with an introduction by the photographer that is both autobiographical and informative. It offers a glimpse into his process for capturing these elusive desert gems, resulting in photographs so beautiful they were featured as a book of stamps issued by the U.S. Postal Service.
This collection of cactus flowers in bloom is a one-of-a-kind work by a master photographer.
