Photographic artist Alex Frayne has travelled the length and breadth of South Australia to bring us this wondrous book of images from his big and beautiful, timeless and daunting back yard.
Illuminating the view throughout is the celebrated light that falls on the state's hills and plains, its deserts and waters.
South Australia's landscapes are extraordinary and enriching. Alex Frayne pays them marvellous homage in this triumphant and emotional photographic essay. Here is the work of a master of his art.
Praise for Landscapes of South Australia
'His landscapes are sensational.' - William Yang
Praise for Alex Frayne
'Frayne's eerily still urban landscapes have been likened in their classical framing and pervasive sense of strangeness in the familiar, to the work of Stanley Kubrick and Jeffrey Smart.' - Simon Caterson, Australian
