Description

Reconstructing the View: The Grand Canyon Photographs of Mark Klett and Byron WolfeUsing landscape photography to reflect on broader notions of culture, the passage of time, and the construction of perception, photographers Mark Klett and Byron Wolfe spent five years exploring the Grand Canyon for their most recent project, Reconstructing the View. The team's landscape photographs are based on the practice of rephotography, in which they identify sites of historic photographs and make new photographs of those precise locations.

Using landscape photography to reflect on broader notions of culture, the passage of time, and the construction of perception, photographers Mark Klett and Byron Wolfe spent five years exploring the Grand Canyon for their most recent project, Reconstructing the View. The team's landscape photographs are based on the practice of rephotography, in which they identify sites of historic photographs and make new photographs of those precise locations. Klett and Wolfe referenced a wealth of images of the canyon, ranging from historical photographs and drawings by William Bell and William Henry Holmes, to well-known artworks by Edward Weston and Ansel Adams, and from souvenir postcards to contemporary digital images drawn from Flickr. The pair then employed digital postproduction methods to bring the original images into dialogue with their own. The result is this stunning volume, illustrated with a wealth of full-color illustrations that attest to the role photographers--both anonymous and great--have played in picturing American places.

Rebecca Senf's compelling essay traces the photographers' process and methodology, conveying the complexity of their collaboration. Stephen J. Pyne provides a conceptual framework for understanding the history of the canyon, offering an overview of its discovery by Europeans and its subsequent treatment in writing, photography, and graphic arts.

Great for my frizzy hair
Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 06 - Black, Number of Items: 2
I got these because I really wanted something to helps tame my frizzy hair but also help with my skin. I have very sensitive skin and my break outs have reduced so much! They fit my standard pillows without an issues. The color never fades, they wash and dry well. The quality is on point. Worth it.

Highly recommend
Size: King/Cali King(102"x90"), Color: Gray
I love this comforter so, so much. More than I ever thought I would. Yes, it sometimes slips off but the comfortableness of it outweighs this hands down. It feels nice, not too hot and the weight is perfect. Quality and durability have been excellent. I need one in white! This was a sale that came with a different white comforter that I purchased from Bedsure that I still haven't taken out of the package because I ended up loving this one so much!

Comforter only fits king sized bed one way, look for the lengthwise seams on the sides.
Size: King/Cali King(102"x90"), Color: Gray
Most comfortable comforter I've ever owned. Can't explain it, it truly feels cool while keeping you warm. We tripled it with the cooling bamboo sheets and a cooling bamboo mattress protector and are sleeping way better. Don't waste hundreds on luxury brands that dont work half as good as these, believe me we tried them and these are way better.

~* obsessed *~
Size: King/Cali King(102"x90"), Color: Gray
i am obsessed with this comforter. super soft and silky, and actually keeps me cool at night! it is thinner than i had thought it was but it is not an issue at all. i did think it was a bit on the small size for king bed but my fiancee and i havent had an issue with that either. another plus is that it is not like all these bulky comforters you have to fight to get into the washer/dryer! VERY easy to wash! i will likely just continue buying these when i eventually need a new one!
