"A stunning collection of
photographs by Alex Saberi, which illustrate the rich diversity of
wildlife in Richmond Park throughout the seasons."
- Discover Wildlife.com
"Alex's
ethereal, fairy-tale-like images are a real wonder. His grasp of light,
location and atmosphere make these photographs ones that border on the
unique."
- Amateur Photographer
Sir David Attenborough has
described Richmond Park as "A very special place" - and with good
reason. This vast oasis of green, just eight miles from the centre of
London, is an ecological pearl in the midst of sprawling urbanisation.
The
park, most famous for its herd of 630 Fallow and Red Deer, is not only
Europe's largest park, but is as big as the seven other royal parks
combined. Since King Charles I enclosed the park in 1637, it has
provided a haven of tranquillity and diversion for all its visitors.
Today, some 77 million people pass through its gates each year.
In
this beautiful book, Alex Saberi captures Richmond Park's unique blend
of rare and diverse wildlife, plant life and rolling landscapes. From a
crow perching on a bench in the morning haze to a foolhardy Labrador,
breaking impatiently away from its owner, the photographs capture its
inherent beauty as well as those rare moments of wildlife action and
majesty that only yield themselves to the most patient and knowledgeable
of observers.
