Klappentext:
"Florida! Realm of sparkling springs, sweetest citrus, bluest skies, endless trails and paddling streams.
By the millions, we all sooner or later escape-then escape again-into Sunshine State dreams. We lose ourselves on the Orange Blossom Special, on the Overseas Highway, on the Cross-Florida Greenway.
Who can resist Florida color and style? Flamingo-pink mail boxes, riotous floral shirts and gingerbread house details appear as ubiquitously before us as nature's own parade of showy birds, fanfare sunsets and florid subtropical growth.
In this latest book of fine art photography, Florida...Beyond the Blue Horizon, Alan S. Maltz finds Florida's most secret places while revealing the hidden aspects of the state's most familiar scenes more vividly than we ever imagined. Nothing escapes Alan's curiosity and achievement. He is our tour guide to wonder.
Florida...Beyond the Blue Horizon also helpfully locates each of Alan's portraits by the section of the state where each was photographed. All together, they remind us that the travel that has enticed us to make Florida home (or surely will tempt us) will also keep us exploring the state day by day, week by week, forever.
Alan reminds us, travel is to Florida, as art is to life.
