Item description from seller

Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice older book in good condition. Some light tanning due to age. Hardcover. English. See images for condition. About the book >.>.> This book, Thirty Years of Nature Photography by Seton Gordon, recounts the author?s personal experiences while photographing birds and animals in their natural habitats. Rather than providing an exhaustive catalogue of all species photographed, Gordon focuses on specific, interesting records that capture the essence of their encounters with these creatures. The narrative is framed around his personal reflections and the relationships formed with his subjects, offering a glimpse into the world of nature photography through the lens of his unique experiences.Gordon shares insights gained from his long-standing pursuit of nature photography, highlighting challenges and solutions discovered during his time in the remote Highlands. He intentionally refrains from detailing the failures and disappointments commonplace among photographers, choosing instead to present a curated selection of photographs that reflect his most memorable moments. This book serves as both a personal memoir and a practical guide for beginners, offering lessons from his life-long study of the natural world.Originally, the first edition was entirely lost in the Great Fire of London in 1941, a tragic event that led to the necessity of this new edition. This version includes a selection of recent photographs while omitting others due to increased production costs. It is intended not only as a legacy for Gordon's grandchildren but also as a resource for those embarking on their own journeys in nature photography, showcasing the beauty and complexity of the natural environment through his lens.
