South Africa Landscapes

More about the book

The photographs portray the typical South Africa, that is tourist attractions, famous landmarks and landscape features, fauna and flora that are clearly identifiable with South Africa. Every picture tells its own story, for example, photographs showing vast, uninhabited areas, or simply the country's beauty (Blyde River Canyon, Table Mountain, etc). Pictures of fauna typify animal behaviour or characteristics like animals drinking at a water hole or running in a herd. The design makes the most of the pictures by featuring quite a few double-page spreads (26 in total) and concentrates on full-page bleeds; three-quarter pictures across the gutter are limited and were only used in cases where a photograph particularly warranted it.
