The newest collection from award-winning photographer Keith Carter, \u003ci\u003eGhostlight\u003c\/i\u003e captures the otherwordly spirits of swamps, marshes, bogs, baygalls, bayous, and fens in more than a hundred photographs. \u003cp\u003e From Ossabaw Island, Georgia, to his home ground of East Texas, Carter seeks \"the secretive and mysterious\" of this often-overlooked landscape: wisps of fog drifting between tree branches; faceless figures contemplating a bog; owls staring directly at the camera lens; infinite paths leading to unknown parts. Similarly, spectral images are evoked in the original short story that opens this book. Ghostlight, writes best-selling author Bret Anthony Johnston, \"hovers, darts, disappears. It can be as mean as a cottonmouth, as mischievous aes a child. The closer you get, the farther the light recedes.\" A masterpiece of \"Bayou Gothic,\" \u003ci\u003eGhostlight\u003c\/i\u003e challenges our perceptions and invites us to experience the beauty of this elusive world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Keith Carter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1477326553\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781477326558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.28h x 12.28w x 0.63d","brand":"Keith Carter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071489274111,"sku":"9781477326558","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d7778a0c-914f-44e6-b280-7e707a5242bb.jpg?v=1685436401","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ghostlight-keith-carter-9781477326558","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
