Table of ContentsReviewsThe photographs collected in Wilderness offer a unique and genuinely personal perspective on the nooks and panoramas of those wild places--a puzzle of sky caught through a close-up tangle of leafless branches; the line where a streak of dark trees cuts a sudden edge into a clearing. The rawness and intimacy of the images lend them an emotional, meditative quality, reminding viewers of our own unexpected, astonishing glimpses of nature.--High Country News The images [Bloomfield] captured . . . express something essential to the idea of wilderness as it was first articulated in the 1964 Wilderness Act: a landscape that is untrammeled, self-willed, and self-possessed.--Orion Bloomfield's photos--of glistening water, of islands rising out of estuaries, of thick stands of trees--are . . . atmospheric. They're lovely and poetic, but they do not so much evoke a specific place as they conjure up a universal wilderness.--Tucson Weekly Bloomfield has created a powerful message through imagery. For wilderness to continue to exist, it must remain wild.--Wildlife Activist The photographs collected in Wilderness offer a unique and genuinely personal perspective on the nooks and panoramas of those wild places--a puzzle of sky caught through a close-up tangle of leafless branches; the line where a streak of dark trees cuts a sudden edge into a clearing.
