photography book project
RAINFOREST REVERED

WILDERNESS OF COSTA RICA

This book project is the artistic and visual expression of my long time fascination with Costa Rica and its nature.

I have been exploring and photographing the wildlife and magnificent landscapes in the various regions of this country.

The book will be comprised of over 200 color and black & white photographs depicting Costa Rica's staggering biodiversity. I focus my photography on presenting the Rainforest as it stands today, magnificent and strong, adding one more voice of concern for its preservation.

Project completion date Winter, 2008.
