  A sequel to The Seasons Observed, Evelyn Lauder's first book of photographs, this new book presents a dazzling new selection of full-color images made by the author during her travels throughout the world. From brilliant sunsets over the Pacific, to intimate close-ups of flowers, faces and abstract patterns formed by light on water or ice, Lauder demonstrates a remarkable ability to capture the beauty in the everyday world. The first book was arranged according to the seasons; this one will have a more straightforward design, organized by the photographer's approach to her subjects (sky, natural spectacles, close-ups of abstract patterns, landscapes). The implicit themes of Lauder's photographs - optimism and nature's capacity for healing and renewal - are also those of her intense dedication to breast cancer research, and all royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
