Many of the earliest books; particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before; are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable; high quality; modern editions; using the original text and artwork.

Review
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A pioneering look at contemplative photography from a Christian perspectiveBy FibonacciWhat a great book. I recently taught a class on photography as a spiritual discipline and had a hard time finding anything written from a Christian perspective. (By contrast. there seems to be an endless supply written from a Zen Buddhist perspective.) Howard Zehr is a distinguished professor of restorative justice at Eastern Mennonite University and he found that his work was so cerebral that he craved something more intuitive. He tried meditation with little success until someone suggested that since he was visually oriented he needed to find a visual form of meditation. He had a longstanding love for photography and suddenly saw that photography and meditation could be the ticket to the kind of meditative process he was looking for. While the book is fairly short. it is packed with great tips on how to duplicate the process in your own life.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Shift your perspectiveBy d DavisZehr guides photographers toward a new relationship with the subject matter of their photography. Bringing awe. gratitude and mindfulness/heartfulness to each photograph can not only create a positive influence on your photos but also on everything you see. Step-by-step suggestions and practices ease the photographer along the path. Highly recommend this little book.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
