    About the Book

    Edit

    The Nature Conservancy is one of the most effective environmental organizations in the world with chapters in 79 countries across six continents. The Conservancy made its first land purchase in New York in 1955 and has since grown to more than 815,000 acres across the state including several locations on Long Island.

    My mission as a nature photographer is to “advocate for preservation by using the power of the visual image to create greater awareness of the natural beauty that surrounds us and to stimulate increased involvement in the protection of our fragile environment”. This led me to the idea for a project to provide a photographic collection of the Conservancy’s preserves on Long Island not as a scientific pursuit but rather and artistic one that endeavored to capture the unique energy and personality of these serene Long Island landscapes. My hope was that the viewer would “experience” these places and connect to our local environment on a deeper level.

    As you journey through this book, please page slowly, linger awhile, breathe deeply, step into these images, let your mind wander and enjoy.

    About the Creator

    A. Graziano Photography
    Long Island, New York, USA

    Anthony Graziano is a fine art photographer who has captured the beauty of nature for more than 30 years. He believes that our bonds to the natural world are instinctual and that we are drawn to nature as an emotional refuge and as a means of spiritual renewal. His hope is that his work brings a sense of peace to the viewer while, at the same time, creating a passion to protect our fragile environment. His vision flows from what is perceived to what is felt and finally, to what is seen and his approach involves spending extended time in a location to experience its energy before attempting a photo. The resulting imagery is striking in its ability to be emotionally calming and visually stimulating and the vibrant color palette and creative use of light convey a true sense of serenity. Anthony’s artistic vision and creative approach succeed in the rare quality of capturing a true sense of time and place that draw us in allowing the viewer to experience the beauty of the natural world.
