THE IMAGES

The subject of Linda’s 100 single frame photographs are the beautiful unpolluted night skies taken around Zambia’s 10 Provinces. They showcase the vast open expanses of this rich land, in all of their glory, highlighting the change in seasons and moon phases as well as showcasing the vibrancy of the ever changing colours of the night. The book intends to inspire the audience to physically go outside and look up into the night and witness the stars in all their mystic, a privilege that many people around the world are not able to do due to intense light pollution called skyglow.

Linda has also hand illustrated 9 watercolour maps of various National Parks, circuits and river systems within Zambia, as well as sharing information on how her single frame images were captured, encouraging people to explore this captivating technique needed with night photography.

An excerpt from the foreword note of the book written by Sport Beattie , Founder and President of GRI.

For most humans, nighttime represents the end of another day, happy or sad, long or hard. It is a time to pause and reflect, to prepare for tomorrow, to relax and unwind and finally, as our eyelids grow heavy, it is a time to sleep.

Most of us will spend almost a third of our entire life asleep, at night! Yet, as you will discover in the pages of this amazing book, it is during these hours of darkness when so many incredible and magical things are happening all around us and right above us in the night sky.
