The Light Elsewhere

Description

Published by Artemis Media, 2013, 1st UK Edition, D/w, Fine.    David Pickford is a climber, photographer, writer, editor and adventurer.  He was the editor of CLIMB magazine from 2010 to 2017 and is currently the editor and creative director of BASE magazine.  For many years a professional climber with numerous first ascents to his credit around the world, he is an inveterate traveller, explorer and one of the UK’s leading adventure photographers.  This, his first book, is a photographic essay in three parts; the first is an exploration of the changing nature of wilderness landscapes; the second a celebration of adventure on rock, ice, snow and two wheels; and the third a personal portrait of that which resists and survives the passage of time.  With images from over thirty countries across the world, this is a truly stunning  collection of photographs in a large-format landscape volume, accompanied by some thought provoking prose.
