The Big News!
I mentioned before a few months ago that I had some big news to share and a big sale (one reason why I was able to buy my 100-400L lens). Well, now I can tell you what that news is.
I have a new book published! Well, not exactly. It is not my book. But this new book does feature about 80 or so of my waterfall photographs. It is called “America’s Top 100 Western Waterfalls” by Richard Beisel Jr, and you can buy it from Amazon here or maybe in your local bookstore if you can find it there.
Not all the waterfall photos in the book are mine. As I said, he used about 80 of my photos, so a good chunk of them are mine. I was happy with the print quality for most of the photos, but a few of the older ones were taken before I had a decent camera. This photo of Vernal Falls is just one that is featured in the book that I am very pleased with.
About the author, a few years ago, Richard Beisel developed a new scientific classification system for rating waterfalls, and he had it accepted by the International Standards Organization. It is not a perfect system, but it is a consistent and mathematical method for classifying waterfalls. He explains this more in the book. He has published a couple books previously, “International Waterfall Classification System”, and “America’s Top 100 Eastern Waterfalls”. He contacted me about using my photos for his western book because he did not have the inventory of photos of western waterfalls that I have (since he lives in the east). I did give him some suggestions on which waterfalls to include in this book, but it is his book and his waterfalls included.
So if you like waterfalls, be sure to buy the book. It is a pretty decent waterfall companion book.
