Product Information

Setting up camp by moonlight amidst a chorus of tree frogs. Rising two hours before sunrise and taking a predawn hike through a dim forest into quiet isolation, into the total immersion of Nature's vast embrace. This book is the culmination of many such trips into the diverse natural areas of Missouri by professional Nature photographer Kevin Sink. A native of the Kansas City area, Kevin has traveled extensively across the United States to photograph the natural landscape. This, his premiere book effort, has focused on his affinity for the Missouri landscape. "As a youth in Missouri, I watched the rhythm of the seasons, year after year, and have a fond and special memory of these times. John Schaefer, an author of several books on photographic technique has said, 'Fine photographs are those that capture the spirit as well as the light and form of their subject.' Since the Missouri andscape has such a strong spirit of place for me, I thought I should take John's advice and earnestly look there for compelling photographs." Kevin's strategy is to look for those places that are remote from any evidence of man, and find natural communities that may still resemble their appearance prior to settlement. Many of Missouri's public lands are large and far away from urbanized areas, so they have a pristine character about them. Missouri's cutting edge conservation system of public lands called The Natural Area System identifies natural resources with relatively undisturbed native habitats and manages them to preserve the natural diversity and ecology of the state's native landscapes. Although some of the locations photographed for this book are well traveled, most are in the more pristine Natural Areas, or from places within the State Parks not frequently visited. "I love finding places in the middle of nowhere that may look the way they did 200 years ago. It's like finding the heart and soul of the landscape," Kevin says. It's as if some haunting, unseen presence pervades the air and the overall effect is more than the physical aesthetics of the scene." The images in this book were shot with a Linhof Technikardan 4"x5" view camera, with 600mm, 210mm, 150mm, and 90mm lenses. Each scene represents an average of 30 to 45 minutes of camera work, but this is just part of the time invested in each picture. Most areas represented in the book were visited two to four times to get just the right shot. "Weather patterns, seasonal appearance, and time of day are all important in deciding which areas are prime for photography," Kevin says. "Knowledge of how these variables will affect individual scenes will help put you in the right place at the right time, but more often than not, Mother Nature will surprise you, and you need to have several alternative plans at the ready."
