Silence & Solitude

Mehr zum Buch

Winter in Yellowstone National Park is a powerful and enchanting season, marked by super-heated water erupting into frigid air and wildlife struggling for survival amid the snow. Photographer Tom Murphy has uniquely captured this wilderness, skiing deep into the backcountry with heavy camera gear, a resilience to the cold, and an artist’s eye. His work reveals a majestic landscape where clean, clear air allows a wolf’s howl to echo for miles. In "Silence & Yellowstone’s Winter Wilderness," 130 stunning photographs showcase the splendor and intensity of Yellowstone's harsh winter. Through these images, we gain insight into the lives of wildlife enduring the cold, feel the inspiring power of an untamed landscape, and appreciate nature’s beauty in both grand and subtle forms. Murphy’s thoughtful captions enhance the experience, allowing us to smile at a fox hunting for a mouse, understand the stoic presence of bison in geothermal steam, and marvel at fleeting moments of light that transform ordinary scenes into breathtaking vistas. As noted by author Tim Cahill in his foreword, Murphy’s work reflects a deep passion and knowledge, making these photographs not only visually stunning but also wise and insightful.
