OverviewThis collection of nature photography has a poetic purpose in mind. These images convey the sea's raw power, its constructive and destructive force. Each picture is reflected back on itself, flipped or curved, the waves like works of sculpture that extend into infinity. Tabor's ingenious method captures the spirit of the wave by breaking it into its physical elements. He crops the most energetic section of the surf and, by eliminating the horizon line, deprives the picture of any sense of scale. He heightens chromatic contrasts until these waves dominate the image - there is only the fluid burst of spray and the flash of reflected light off the water. The results are undeniable: dynamic three-dimensional explosions seem to surge off the page, and it is hard to believe these waves aren't moving. Splash will bring the ocean to you. AUTHOR: Bob Tabor is known for his equine portraits as well as his seascapes, having previously produced the anthologies Horse Whisperings, Horse Human: An Emotional Bond and Polo: Equine Warriors. His Dreamscapes book presents a calmer sea to that in Splash, meditative and thought-provoking. SELLING POINTS: .

Table of ContentsReviewsIn Splash, it's the curl or explosive landing of a big wave, a dynamic immediacy, a graphic simplicity, which will give new meaning to what otherwise might be just a familiar nature image...especially the tendrils of white foam that shoot out and cascade like a Jackson Pollock spasm across the page.--Joan Baum The Independent Author InformationBob Tabor is known for his equine portraits as well as his seascapes, having previously produced the anthologies Horse Whisperings, Horse Human: An Emotional Bond and Polo: Equine Warriors.
