Comments: After two decades of living, diving, working and shooting in the West Indies I realized I had the book concept, idea, format, style, 'look', and image stock - that I wanted to showcase all the dazzling tropical flowers that surrounded me everyday. Ignorant of so many of their names and with every flower ID book in confusing Latin phylum - we turned it all upsidedown with two years of research and production, the result - the IPPY Silver Medal for Best Non-Fiction SE USA. The cover is from the strange and dazzling night blooming shaving brush tree. Full West Indies stock agency, every subject, including deep tropical flower stock. Autographed copies of the book available from the agency.
