Back Roads of the Southwest

Join landscape photographer David Skernick as he travels the remote back roads of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, and Nevada—a region so rich in natural beauty that much of it has been preserved by the national park system. Panoramic images place the viewer directly into landscapes containing ranches, wolves, wild horses, and stunning geological formations. Interwoven with this rugged scenery are glimpses of civilization—working grain elevators, old hotels, and the occasional abandoned gas station. Skernick, who leads photography workshops nationwide, lets us in on his strategies with an appendix listing exposure, equipment, and panorama statistics for each image—enough to satisfy even the most technology-minded photographer. 192 pp | 123 color photos
