Product Description
Portrait of Paradise Showcasing the dynamic work of Bozeman photographer Carol Polich, paired with an inspired foreword by Bozeman writer Alan Kesselheim, Portrait of Paradise is a timeless tribute to the grandeur of the Gallatin and Paradise valleys and Yellowstone National Park. Polich shares 127 of her finest photographs taken during her decades of travel to the mountains, meadows, rivers, and ranches of this unique slice of southwestern Montana and northeastern Wyoming with dog Oliver by her side. Watch bison move through the mist in Yellowstone National Park, experience the rapids of Yankee Jim Canyon on the Yellowstone River, watch a thunderstorm roll through the Paradise Valley, stroll through historic downtown Bozeman, and experience the Old West of Virginia City. In the foreword, Kesselheim writes, The patterns of weather and season and wildlife migrations impress themselves on your psyche. Over time, you know when to expect the first lilies and mountain bluebirds, how a November sunset will strike the Bridgers, where to find wild roses on the banks of the Gallatin River at peak flow, or when, intuitively, you know the newborn bison calves are out, glowing red in the spring sun. It is this intimacy with the region that allows Polich to document this remarkable land to create this Portrait of Paradise.
