A Quiet Walk on the Beach: Exploring the Beauty of America's Seashore (Quiet Walk Series)

What do you think of when you think of the beach--a hot sun? Burning sands? Crowds of people tanning, picnicking, and playing? Well, there's another beach, one with breathtaking sunrises and thrilling sunsets, with cool breezes and empty expanses, and where the heavens meet the earth. That what you'll see here, and each photo captures nature so closely you'll almost smell the salty sea as you turn the pages. The photographs venture into many spaces: Sanibel Island on the Gulf coast, with its imposing landmark ironwork lighthouse and impressive dunes covered with shells. The Chincoteague Refuge in Virginia shelters beautiful birds, countless deer, and its famous wild ponies. Not so far from New York City lie the Hamptons, where during stormy weather the raging Atlantic forms six-foot waves that break on shore. An unequalled testament to some of America's most spectacular shores.
