“These wonderful ancient trees, deserved a presentation that shared an aesthetic and spiritual affinity, and in this book they combine as a collection that embrace and articulate David Magee’s approach to landscape photography”. The twenty four photographs, all produced in black and white, are printed in tritone. The print production and hand crafted binding combining to make the book a piece of fine art in itself. Printed and bound in London, presented in a clam shell presentation box, this limited edition book is signed and editioned by the artist.
