Costa Rica: A Journey through Nature by Adrian Hepworth (Author). Costa Rica: A Journey by way of Nature is a hard cover coffee-desk e book that is prominently featured in the new motion picture “The Librarian” (to be released in 2013) starring Oscar-successful actress Marcia Homosexual Harden. It plays a key position in the movie’s plot and seems in scenes filmed both in the US and in Costa Rica.
The e-book is a powerful illustrated testimony to Costa Rica’s fragile magnificence and is full of stunning photographs from Costa Rica that signify 13 years of subject work by the author.
This exquisite e-book, sensible in coloration and enchanting in the subject, takes readers on a private journey by the jewelled treasure that is Costa Rica. Pictures of spacious seashores, muddy river banks, crystal clear waterfalls, and lush jungles adorned with tropical blooms and prehistoric crops will keep in the reader’s mind for a long time to come.
The e-book is organized by area — the Central Divide, Guanacaste, the Central Pacific, the Osa Peninsula, the North Caribbean and the South Caribbean. It closes with a discussion on conservation and responsible tourism. Like a knowledgeable tour guide, the extended captions provide fascinating info and useful context, all from the attitude of the creator / photographer.
Highlights on the journey embrace Arenal, one of many world’s most energetic volcanoes, Tortuguero National Park, the place alone jaguar trots across the sand, large tree ferns — evolutionary relics that predate flowering vegetation – in the Monteverde Cloud Forest Protect, a blood-scarlet ardor flower emerging through leaf litter, a partially submerged crocodile, its riveting stare fixed on the photographer and poison arrow frogs, vividly painted in deadly reds, blues and greens.
Overflowing with good web page-filling photographs and informative text, this book is as shut as one can get to Costa Rica and not using a passport.
Lovely photos, attention-grabbing explanations. Highlighted the types of animals and flora that we had just seen on our trip to Costa Rica. This will undoubtedly be a good-liked coffee table book in our house!
I needed a guide that confirmed the rainforest vegetation, flowers, and birds. Some animals and fish photos would simply add to the memories. I acquired that in this book. I had seemed by a variety of library books earlier than deciding to purchase this one and Nature of the Rainforest: Costa Rica and Beyond. The black background on the pages made the photos really soar out vividly.
