by Tim Palmer. In photographer Palmer's previous book, Rivers of America, his chief creative and technical problem involved the capture of flowing water; now, his challenge concerns subjects very large and very still. Palmer travels the length and breadth of the United States (including Hawaii and Alaska) to gather his images of native trees and covers eight forest regions in all seasons, mostly in undisturbed areas like national parks or reserves. Palmer has a passion for the biggest, oldest specimens: redwoods, Douglas firs, yews, tulip trees, and oaks. How do you fit something so large into the frame? Palmer has some amazing solutions to the problem. (Check Catalog)
