Aprašymas

Sable Island's horses are legendary creatures. Feral, unbroken, and literally untouched by human hands, they inspire curiosity, wonder, and admiration. Sable Untamed: The Wild Beauty of Sable Island's Horses chronicles their resilience through perceptive, intimate photography, paired with a concise, research-informed reflection on the horses' ecology.

Zoologist and photographer Damian Lidgard has had the privilege of spending several months every year since 1997 on Nova Scotia's remote Sable Island--much of that time when the island is closed to visitors. Having access to the entire island has allowed him to photograph Sable's horses in all seasons and in all weather conditions.

In Sable Untamed, Lidgard offers fascinating scientific information on the ecology of the Sable Island horse while showcasing nearly 100 gorgeous photographs of the horses and their environment, a unique landscape of shifting sand dunes, windswept grasses, and flora and fauna found nowhere else in the world. The images highlight Lidgard's contemplative approach to photography which requires time and patience to silently observe and still the mind to allow raw perceptions to arise. The stunning results depict the raw power and unmatched beauty of the Sable Island horse in this gorgeous full-colour book.
