Gary Ladd's CanyonLight: Grand canyon & Lake Powell (Cerca Book)
Editorial Reviews Book Description Gary Ladd conresses, "I'm not really so much a photographer as just a nosy soul interested in the canyons." But, Gary Ladd is far more than a mere observer. For him, photographing the wondrous and ever-changing beauty of both the Grand Canyon and Lake Powell has become an obsession.
Ladd has hiked and camped the Grand Canyon over 70 times in over two decades, often carrying 80-pound packs of camera gear, and rowed a wooden dory through the Grand Canyon, to capture the images you see here.
His large-format images of scattered sunlight reverberating off the wind-sculpted canyon walls, the crosscrossing pattern of rippling water, the sharp, red jags of rock, the pinks petals of the redbud tree, illuminate the landscapes' splendor. About the Author Gary Ladd sold his first photo in 1972, to Life magazine, and his second soon therafter to the equally-accalimed Arizona Highways. A contributor to a variety of nature magazines, Ladd has been a full-time photographer since 1979. Ladd's photography provided the visual backbone to numerous books, including Grand Canyon: Time Below the Rim, with writer Craig Childs.
