Books of Interest

I have a couple of books which some of you might find interesting and am inviting you to take a look at them at our April 5th meeting.

This is not a photography book, but one about Wisconsin barns. Nevertheless, the photos are really excellent. The photographer is credited as a co-author (something that is all too uncommon in my opinion) and while there is nothing wrong with the text, it is the photography, and of course the topical interest that makes this book something special.

I have had this book for several years and think that it is a gem. All of the images are panoramas taken of the Mississippi River from St. Paul to St. Louis. These include several from Winona to Prairie du Chien. I would like to try to replicate some of them. Have a gander and see what you think.
