Customer Reviews
Golf Porn!
I have a good friend who is a golf writer and he refers to fantastic photos like this as "golf porn" and with apologies for the reference to those who would take offense, this is hard core golf porn! What sets this golf photography book apart from any other is Evan's accompany commentary about his preparation and executing in taking the shots. You are there with him, in the moment, as he takes the shot. Whether it's tip toeing across the frost covered fairway, perching in a crane over the 8th at Pebble Beach or withstanding a driving rainstorm amongst the dunes of Ireland, you're there! You don't just view the shot, you "experience" the shot and that gives the photo another dimension that you don't normally get to be a part of. Fair warning: once you get started on the book, you won't stop until you've reached the very end. Pour yourself a cup of coffee or tea, kick your shoes off and settle in for some serious golf porn; it's time well spent.
Eye Candy for Golfers
I once heard a South African describe the dramatic setting of his golf course as the ultimate "eye candy" for golfers. Well this is a whole book of eye candy! For anyone who loves the game of golf, Evan Schiller's "Golf's Unfolding Drama" will inspire you to continue your travels to and adventures on golf courses around the world. Thankfully for all of us, Evan's photography captures spectacular moments that many of us miss because we are too busy focusing on our own games or we just aren't up early enough (or late enough) to appreciate the amazing natural beauty surrounding us. I especially enjoyed his personal observations about the individual shots and the details he shared on what it took to make each one happen - it really felt like you were right there by his side as the drama unfolded. And don't ask me to pick a favorite photograph, there are just too many to count!
Beautiful
The eighth hole at my golf club during the summers is enveloped by amazing shades of reds, oranges, and yellows. The scenery is so beautiful that I often find myself staring back towards it from the ninth tee. Mr. Schiller's wonderful collection of photographs is pages after pages of this eighth hole.
As a golfer and photographer, I am often struck by the natural beauty of land and light during my 18 hole walks. This book captures the feelings of awe that I sometimes feel as I walk the course.
