Windstone: Natural Arches, Bridges, and Other Openings

by Ruth Rudner

Celebrated landscape photographer David Muench turns his keen photographic eye to the mystery of the sculpted earth in NATURAL ARCHES, BRIDGES, AND OTHER OPENINGS. These spectacular photographs of natural arches, land bridges, windows, sea stacks, caves, and sea arches represent a master photographer at the top of his game. David Muench beautifully captures the play of form and light in these magnificent creations of wind, water, and stone. From the rich, red rock of the Colorado Plateau and Kentucky's dramatic Red River Gorge to the remarkable rock arches and caves of the American coastline, experience these amazing natural formations as never before. A fascinating and deeply personal essay by Ruth Rudner illuminates the significance of the arch in natural history, folklore, Native cultures, and architecture.
