Listen to
the Landscape
Linda Nemec Foster (poet)
Dianne Carroll Burdick (artist)
72 pages; dimensions (in inches): 9 x 7; 28 hand-colored photos;
2006
Mirroring the human response to the natural world, this book is a
rare synthesis of stunning landscape photography and understated
haiku poetry. Dianne Carroll Burdick has photographed what she sees
but expressed what she feels by hand-coloring her photographic
images. Linda Nemec Foster has followed the traditional form created
by Japanese poets over five hundred years ago to pen elegant haiku.
