5.0 out of 5 stars A stunningly-beautiful work!, October 6, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Wild & Scenic Florida (Hardcover)
"Wild & Scenic Florida" is a stunningly-beautiful work.

Travel photographer James Randklev has done a remarkable job of capturing the color, beauty, and geographical diversity of Florida's semitropical beaches, swamps, and wetlands.

Nearly all of the photographs (there 123 full-color images) are workmanlike blends of intense colors, winning details, and precise composition. "Agave Among Beach Grass," Courtyard of Ringling Museum of Art," and "Ceramic Tiles of Old Ybor City" are just a handful of fine examples of the above.

Even Randklev's less dynamic pictures ("Mangrove at Low Tide" or "Ernest Hemingway's House") are evocative, telling, and admirably composed.

The richness of Randklev's colors is, no doubt, his artistic signature. The reds in "Sea Grape Changing Colors" and the haunting shades of oceanic greens and blues in "Beach Walk Miami Beach" seem ready to spill fully from the page (or spill the viewer fully into the photograph!).

Lovers of Florida and outstanding photography will revel in this book.
