Beyond the Trail

Beyond the Trail by Rodney Lough Jr.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780970401113.

Imagine a place so quiet, your heartbeat is percussion, a place so serene it erases your thoughts. Envision the sun in a lavender sky casting shadows on a textured mountain while the wind lifts a wisp of snow on the branches of a tree. This is the true face of the earth, flawless, ageless, stunning. It is another high point on The Lough Road. A journey of peace and discovery. It is the beauty that defines America, expressed in the language of the soul, art. These images, as seen by the artist and captured in a photograph, reveal a most personal planet, achieved by the patience of a true artist who knows that if you look carefully, and pay attention, the world will reveal its majesty to you. Join Rodney Lough Jr. on his most breathtaking visual journey. Experience this country as youve never seen it before, intimately. Be there when the shutter blinks and stills another moment of creation, of inspiration and beauty. See the view as it was meant to be seen, from every stop along The Lough Road. Rodney Lough Jr. is a renowned award winning Master Photographer beloved by thousands of fine art collectors worldwide. His last book Wilderness Collections won two prestigious Benny Awards and he was recently honored by the Smithsonian as being the world s best landscape photographer. Renowned for the vibrant colors and intricate textures in his wilderness landscape photography, Rodney is a purist who captures what nature creates, using no color filters or darkroom deception. More than simply documenting his travels through life, Rodney is able to bring back with him the spirit and essence of a place, enabling us all to view the natural world from a unique celebratory perspective and to share that remarkable moment when he clicked the shutter and stilled a moment in time. The world is a remarkable place full of beauty and splendor, Rodney exclaims. To witness the simple grandeur of creation, the miracle of nature, is perhaps all that we need. The peace received while viewing a leaf changing color at the height of fall is immense and divine.
