Land of Light

Land of Light

We are super excited to present photographer Peter Latham's fantastic second book, 'Land of Light - Landscape photographs of New Zealand'.

Peter’s much anticipated second book is an absolute masterpiece. Peter has poured his heart into this weighty tome which comes personally signed in a handcrafted presentation box. 
The photographs are of course extraordinarily beautiful but added to that, the book is filled with notes and anecdotes from Peter’s landscape trawling excursions, providing an entertaining narration to the imagery captured from all corners of Aotearoa.
"If you thought you knew New Zealand, be prepared to be shocked and amazed. From pristine pōhutukawa fringed beaches in the north, to snow capped mountains and alpine lakes of the south, I have invested extraordinary energies to showcase many of the country’s off-shore islands as well, including Chatham and Pitt, the Aldermens, Great Barrier and Stewart Island. This unique book portrays the breadth and beauty of New Zealand like you have never seen before and includes dozens of breathtaking double page panoramas." Peter Latham

 

From the moment you see its handmade box with embossed silver foil lettering, you'll be impressed. Lift the lid to reveal the book and you’ll say "wow", as you hold it in your hands and feel the weight, turning the first pages will confirm what your senses already told you, this is something very special.

Find display copies at our galleries now, ready to leaf through. We also stock a comprehensive selection of Peter's photographs. We have some framed and ready to hang, or we can organise framing for you.

Peter says, "The INSIGHTS + TECHNIQUE chapter provides technical information and stories that reveal how I photographed my most iconic images, with references to videos on this website that allow you to actually experience being there as I captured some of these. This has been a true labour of love, a mammoth self-publishing project and one which I'm very proud of".  

These personally signed books full of exquisite photography and tales of exploration come with a handmade box that keeps the book in pristine condition and makes a stylish way to store the book safely and display it proudly.
