Reviews

Internationally acclaimed outdoor photographer Martin Kers captures this longing to roam the ends of the earth beyond civilization's constraints in his latest collection Destination Nowhere: Geographic Adventures in Primordial Places. This book showcases what many would call desolate landscapes, but others find inspiring, healing, or restorative places to recharge human batteries drained by the constant busyness of modern life.
