A photography book of horses from Northeast Arkansas taken by Cindy & Michael Howard. When Cindy was a small girl, she had her own chocolate Shetland pony named Starbuck. She quickly fell in love with Starbuck, and they became best friends. Sadly, one day her parents decided to sell Starbuck, but Cindy never forgot her love for Starbuck or for horses. Many years later, as an adult and after an illness, Cindy rekindled that love for horses to help her heal mentally and physically. This picture book is a way of sharing not only a love for horses because of their beauty, but also for their ability to help us heal. We hope you enjoy this book as much as we enjoyed making it.

"For anyone heading to the country, this book is filled with ideas for farmstead living, including countless ways to cultivate nature's bounty, from environmentally sensitive experts and enthusiasts.As a lifestyle choice, many people have recently made an exodus from the city to the country. One area in particular, the Hudson River Valley is booming because of legacy farmers and newcomers' mutual respect for the land. This inspirational survey presents a broad cross section of individuals who are flocking to this bucolic region and providing their considerable newfound knowledge on such topics as vegetable farming, planting a flower-cutting garden, tending a fruit orchard, canning and pickling, foraging, harvesting biodynamic honey, brewing beer, baking bread from local grains, and much more. They are restoring historic barns and houses and using salvaged materials for contemporary structures. Picturesque fencing, trellises, and arbors abound. Community dinners and farmers markets are occasions for exchanging information on land preservation. A listing of noteworthy farm-to-table restaurants, inns, farmers markets, farm stands, and artisanal breweries completes this beautifully photographed book, which will inspire and empower."--

Henry Bourne’s photographs of the residences and workspaces of a who’s who of creative people open windows onto the groundbreaking design approaches and trends of the last three decades.For nearly thirty years, Bourne has been photographing the residences and studios of, or those designed by, some of the world’s most important artists, architects, designers, and innovators. Culture and society are constantly evolving, and changes, both aesthetic and sociological, are reflected in our physical surroundings. Spaces and portraits in this volume range from the Upstate New York studio of artist Richard Prince, Vincent Van Duysen’s early apartment in Antwerp, and Marc Newson’s residences (his modern former bachelor pad as well as the more textured apartment  he shares with Charlotte Stockdale today) to the joyfully chaotic London atelier of artist Paula Rego, the Villa Volpi by architect Tomaso Buzzi near Rome, the London studio of artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster—before and after its sleek renovation, designed by architect David Adjaye.Creative director Peter Saville’s sleek London apartment captures the essence of the 1990s, while the homes of both architect Zaha Hadid and minimalist master John Pawson are self-portraits in design. This book is a collection of the mainly personal spaces and portraits of luminaries at the turn of the twenty-first century, depicting the contradictory yet stimulating language of contemporary design: stylish and functional, maximalist and minimalist, opulent and understated.

"Combining an architect's eye and daredevil aerial approach with the restricted airspace over London provides breathtaking photographs as seen here for the first time. London is one of the most photographed cities in the world. But by shooting with the newest high-resolution cameras while leaning out of helicopters, Milstein offers us a double-take of familiar architecture and landscapes. His award-winning work brings a fresh and unexpected view of the city. Due to strict laws around aerial photography, Milstein treats us to a view that otherwise would not be seen, and this new book fills a gap of more than 15 years of aerial photographs of London. Milstein's distinctive style-straight down-brings London to life in a way that is impossible to imagine from street level: from the Thames snaking through the heart of the city, Buckingham Palace, the British Museum, and the City of London business district to Canary Wharf, Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, the magical symmetry of roads, and the beloved green commons. London from the Air is sure to be treasured by anyone who loves the city by the Thames"--Publisher's description.

Through photography and essays, this book is a celebration of one of America's most valuable and iconic rivers and a warning demonstrating the river is a bellwether of overuse and climate change.

In diesem Buch werden Dokumentarfilme analysiert, welche prominent die zeitgenössische Ernährung zum Thema haben. Die audiovisuelle Dokumentation wird dabei als Argumentation begriffen, das Zusammenspiel von bestimmten Inszenierungs-Modi in Sachen Bewegtbild und Ton als rhetorische Figuren, genauer als Tropen, welche jeweils bestimmte Persuasionen zu evozieren imstande sind. Frei nach Ansätzen aus dem Bereich der Neuen Rhetorik und der Psychoanalytischen Filmtheorie (u. a. Christian Metz) wird ein Modell, bestehend aus Metonymie, Synekdoche, Metapher, Katachrese und Ironie, entwickelt, um klären zu können, wie ¿Nahrungs-Aufnahmen¿ argumentationstechnisch oder vielmehr sophistisch, wenn nicht gar rabulistisch funktionieren.

Inspired by finding and reconnecting with his birth mother, queer Northern-Irish artist Jonathan David Smyth's latest monograph brings together a range of mixed media and text, including a series of nude self-portraits created predominantly during the 2020 lockdown."Before re-meeting my biological mother, I'd never encountered a direct physical resemblance between me and another person," explains Smyth. "After we met, I found it nearly impossible to not see her face when I looked at myself in the mirror. This led me to think about the idea of family in its many configurations; how other people can mentor us or deter us, and how shared circumstances and stories can affect and shape us as individuals."Now That You've Gone and Come Back features 20 nude self-portraits, 20 handwritten pieces, three original poems, and a personal essay by the artist.

Over the years, the Lord has taken WG Waltz's passion for hiking and photography and has turned it into a wonderful type of ministry where he is able to share his experiences on God's green earth with readers all over the world through social media, personal testimony, and now, through this devotional. Waltz's A Hiker's Perspective Through HIS Eyes artfully combines one man's many journeys to God's beautifully crafted natural masterpieces with scriptural reflection and prayer. What started out as Waltz wanting to share with others the beautiful sights the Lord has blessed us to see has now become a passion to also share His love with so many others through His beautiful creation. Behind every photograph is a story thoughtfully told by the Lord that suggests both the past and the future to come, and Waltz seeks to show us how to change our perspective so we may see the bigger picture. It is in nature that we can experience His presence so richly and unearth the lessons that His creation holds, and God has blessed us with senses so that we may fully experience the world around us that He so lovingly created. It's Waltz's hope that the words and photographs upon these pages bless you as deeply as they have blessed him, for what we don't see in these pictures is on the other side of the horizon. May God favor you and guide you through these days, weeks, and months to come.

Diese fotografische Liebesgeschichte führt ihre Betrachter durch 55 Jahre der Zusammenarbeit und Partnerschaft von June und Helmut Newton. Es ist die Chronik ihres gemeinsamen Lebens, die sie 1998 erstmals mit ihrem legendärem Gemeinschaftsprojekt Us and Them öffentlich dokumentierten.    ¿ Der erste Teil des Buches - das Us - zeigt persönliche Porträts voneinander sowie Selbstporträts voller Zuneigung und Intimität. Über mehrere Jahrzehnte hinweg entstanden, erzählt jede Fotografie von der zärtlichen Sehnsucht nach dem Damals. In diesem fotografischen Tagebuch richtet sich das Kameraobjektiv auf das gemeinsame Leben von Helmut und June Newton abseits der Öffentlichkeit.   Der zweite Teil - Them - ist eine glamouröse Reise durch die Zeit, bei der die Linse der Fotografen zahlreiche Protagonisten des kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Jetsets in unvergleichlicher Ästhetik einfing. Catherine Deneuve, Anjelica Huston, David Hockney und Timothy Leary wurden dabei ebenso in Szene gesetzt wie Peter Beard, Yves Saint Laurent, Thierry Mugler, Jane Birkin oder Charlotte Rampling. Die von June und Helmut Newton in verschiedenen Fotoshootings aufgenommenen Porträts stehen sich jeweils paarweise gegenüber und offenbaren auf diese Weise zwei Facetten derselben Persönlichkeit. Ebenso eindeutig wie elegant präsentiert sich in diesem Band die faszinierende Melange von Leben und Werk beider Künstler, die sich perfekt ergänzten.

Als The Big Book of Breasts 2006 erschien, wurde es sofort zum Bestseller. Seine 396 Seiten machten mit den von der Natur üppig ausgestatteten wichtigsten Nacktmodellen der 1950er, '60er und '70er bekannt. Dazu gehörten Joan Brinkman, Virginia Bell, Roberta Pedon, Mary Waters, Margaret Middleton, Keli Stewart und viele mehr. Die einzige Kritik an dem Buch war, dass es keine biografischen Angaben zu den kurvigen Schönheiten gab und keine Listen ihrer Auftritte in Magazinen und Filmen, um ihnen noch näher kommen zu können. Das nahmen wir uns zu Herzen, und The Bigger Book of Breasts ist die Antwort. Es gibt jetzt nicht nur mehr Seiten mit völlig neuen Bildern Ihrer beliebtesten Busenstars aus den '50ern zu den '70ern. Sie alle haben nun auch ein persönliches Profil erhalten. Welches Model hat den Schauspieler Richard Pryor geheiratet? Wer inspirierte Russ Meyer zu seinem ersten Film? Wo sind diese Amateurfilme mit Mary Waters geblieben? Und ja, Roberta Pedon ist gesund und munter! Um dem Thema "Bigger Breasts" ein Update zu geben, haben wir zwölf der unglaublichsten und provokativsten Natur-Busenmodelle von heute dazu genommen. Aufgespürt hat sie quer über den Globus der Berliner Fotograf Bernd Daktari Lorenz. Und die Modelle Nadine Jansen, Milena Velba, Luna Amor, Valory Irene, Miosotis Claribel sowie die unglaubliche Hitomi Tanaka beweisen, dass Brüste größer denn je sind, und dass größer einfach schöner ist. Das gilt sowohl für Brüste wie für Bücher. Als Extra gibt es die atemberaubenden Fotos unseres exklusiven Covergirls Kelly Madison dazu und machen The Bigger Book of Breasts zu einem noch größeren Genuss für alle.
