The collection includes both new work and iconic images such as \"Fireflies \" \"The Waltz \" \"Chicken Feathers \" \"Megans New Shoes \" and \"Angel\" selected from all of Carters rare and out-of-print books. When making these images  Carter often asked the children  \"do you have something you would like to be photographed with?\" This creative collaboration between photographer and subject has produced images that conjure up stories  dreams  and imaginary worlds. Complementing the photographs is an essay in which Carter poetically traces the wellsprings of his interest in photographing children to his own childhood experiences in Beaumont  Texas. As he recalls days spent exploring in the woods and creeks  it becomes clear that his art flows from a deep reservoir of sights and sounds imprinted in early childhood. A lyrical meditation on the joys  wonders  and anxieties of childhood  Fireflies brings us back to the small truths that are often pushed aside or forgotten when we become adults.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45280440188981,"sku":"ByrdShop_029272182X","price":45.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780292721821.jpg?v=1780636239","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/fireflies-photographs-of-children-9780292721821","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
