Picture Perfect
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
As a Texan living abroad I bought this book to remind me of the beauty that is the Lone Star state. David Muench truly shows the diversity, splendor and essence of this great place. The stereotypical picture that many people have of Texas just being one huge, flat desert is quickly extinguished. What a fantastic photographer - immensely skilled with an incredible eye.
A distinguished collection.

"David Muench In Texas" is a distinquished collection of 100 full-color (and often full-page) photographs of one of the lensman's favorite states. This handsome, oversized volume "does not represent a brief burst of interest instigated by a publishing contract," says the anonymous editor in the Introduction. Rather, it's a testament to Muench's "career-long fascination with land north of the Rio Grande." The photographer's best work is a heady mix of rich colors, precise composition, and a singular sense of place. We get all that--and more!--in such masterworks as "Sunset, Galveston Bay," "Rock Window, Big Bend National Park," and "Spring Blooms, granites of Llano Uplift." But some of the pictures here are merely colorful landscapes, particularly "Loblolly Pines, Interior Study, Big Thicket National Preserve" and "Rio Grande, Texas/Mexico." But Muench's praiseworthy photos far outnumber his routine ones. Thus, I highly-recommend this beautiful volume.
