Central Park: A Photographic Excursion

Summary: Freund reveals his long time love affair with Central Park
Review: by showing us his "park for all seasons". With his spectacular pictures of the monuments and statuary, the animals, the foliage, the rock formations, the whimisical pictures like the Bride and Groom on rollar skates, the shots of the same setting in different lights, the fountains (and my particular favorite, a sudden snow storm interrupting spring), Mr Freund takes us on a magical trip through the park. There are photos of spots you never knew existed but will long to explore. As a bonus, there are great tips for all of us amateur photographers. And "Lucy" has my vote for cutest dog of the year! Especially in these difficult times, the book is a wonderful reminder to everyone of the beauty and wonder that exists right in the middle of New York City. I couldn't stop smiling as I looked through it. Thank you, Mr. Freund for sharing "your" park with us.

Summary: Wonderful Central Park Book
Review: I live in the Pacific NW, so visiting Central Park is an absolute but rare treat. Mr. Freud's book is exceptional on two counts: common sense tips for photographing in urban parks and revealing the beauty and character of Central Park in both color and black and white. I have three small children and more than once they've dropped this book in my lap while I'm reading the newspaper and say "show me pictures of Stuart Little's park again". I've promised them a trip to NYC someday to see Central Park and this book gives them much to look forward to.

Summary: What a delight!!!
Review: This photographic excursion through Central Park is a real delight. It is just what we all need to remind us of the splendor and joy of New York. The photographs are breathtaking and the text is beautifully wirtten , with just a touch of humor and humility.After enjoying the book myself, I've ordered a number for holiday gifts. I've already heard form some of the folks I sent it to and they share my enthusiam. The real advice: if you don't get this for the holidays, buy it for yourself to get you through the January doldrums.
