Book Description

April 2004

The only collection of photographs devoted to one of America's natural treasures, Shenandoah: Views of Our National Park documents one man's decades-long fascination with this uniquely beautiful region in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Hullihen Williams Moore has been visiting Shenandoah National Park since the mid-1960s, but it was after studying with Ansel Adams in 1979 that he began seriously photographing it. Through fifty-one black-and-white duotone photographic prints, Moore reveals the quiet beauty of Shenandoah National Park. From grand vistas and waterfalls to the delicate unfurling of new ferns, these photographs capture the singular appeal that attracts 1.7 million visitors to the park each year.

In two essays, Moore addresses the natural and human history of the park as well as his own personal experience of it, including the stories behind the individual images. The author has also included a helpful appendix of technical details regarding the photographs.

A limited edition accompanied by original photographic prints is available from the artist at www.hullihenmoorephotography.com

Editorial Reviews

Review

Classical and very traditional in their form and content, the prints are technically flawless and present a high level of proficiency and elegance, as well as a discerning personal vision.

Hullihen Moore shares his co-passions for nature and box photography in a compelling journey through Shenandoah Park.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moore gives us all Mountain Days, November 25, 2003
By 
Edward M. Kaplan (Memphis, Tennessee United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Moore says that his "Mountain Days" at Shenandoah, in every season, "have brought me the park's blessings and enriched my spirit forever." His special eye, facile art and heartfelt words in this precious book evidence his love of the park and bring Mountain Days to us all, spurring us to make our own visit in our own time.
