Description
Stephen Wilkes' panoramic photographs capture the essence of iconic locations around the world. Over 1,500 exposures were shot from a fixed angle to create a single image, distilling visual information and emotion into each composition.
The book presents 60 epic panoramas created between 2009 and 2022, featuring works of art that highlight the stories contained within each image. From the Serengeti to Coney Island, from Africa to New York City, Wilkes' photographs reveal the unique ebb and flow of man-made and natural landmarks.
Each composition is a labor of love, with Wilkes waiting years for permission to photograph certain subjects. The resulting images are personal, candid, and full of detail - it's these small stories that draw people into the photographs.
