Description: Originally published in 1979, Cape Light became an instant classic and one of the most influential photography books published in the latter part of the 20th century. Common scenes, tiny figures on a beach, a porch railing against a storm-darkened sky, a blue raft against a summer cottage, all are transformed by the poignant light of the Cape and the photographer's subtle and luminous vision. This exquisitely printed book captures every nuance of color and light in that unique juncture of sky, sea, and land that is Cape Cod.--From publisher description.
Notes: Originally published in 1978.
