Places of Power, John Sexton's third book, transports the viewer to places few have experienced firsthand. This beautifully produced book explores the haunting mystery of ancient Anasazi cliff... This description may be from another edition of this product.
The real places of power are on the pages of this book. I saw objects of stone and steel glow...an artist who respectfully renders them to black & white film and paper...skillfully crafting an image warm and luminous...bringing it to life. I feel that this book is a wonderful inspiration to people who are trying to understand the artistry of black & white photography. Gordon & Marilyn Bowie Boise, Idaho
Great job! Mr. Sexton

I am neither an employee of Ventana Publication, nor am I paid to write good words about this book. I have always been a fan of John Sexton's work. Who else alive can match his fantastic printmaking skills. I will say it with confident; none. John Sexton is the only person I know who comes close to the printmaking standards of Ansel Adams. "Places of Power" is all about beautiful prints. I am not a technology "freak," so I am in no postion to comment in this area. But if you love black-and-white images, photography, the zone system or large format images, this IS the book for you. Personally, I think $60.00 is a small price to pay to be able to appreciate John Sexton's work.
