Life is a balancing act, and nature really does understand We see a reflection of many of the wonders, struggles and triumphs of our own lives in nature. Join Susie Binkley on a photographic journey to the stunning mountains and redrock country of Colorado and Utah, to discover just how much nature mirrors and understands us Through the eye of the lens she captures magical moments where creatures surprisingly stay still, meet her in the moment, and allow her in to their world. There she finds the magic of nature. She sees "stories" in the animals, plants and landscapes that she photographs. Stories that so mirror our own experiences. "Spending a moment in the eyes of a butterfly or the curls of a blade of grass brings perspective, suspends time, and brings us back in to balance. What I found as I spent time in nature was happiness- pure delight, serenity, peace in my heart, laughter... so many emotions and states of mind that pulled me out of the everyday. It was like meditation through a camera lens. I hope I captured some of those feelings in this book, for you to share and experience over and over again when you need a break from the everyday, and to restore your own balance."
