Rainforest Country

Author: Stanley Breeden

Author: Kaisa Breeden

Few places in Australia are of such pivotal ecological importance as the tropical rainforests of northeast Queensland. Stunning in their diversity and vigour, they are all that remains of the great Gondwana forests that once covered the continent. As well as a spectacle of great beauty, they tell the story of flowering plant evolution.

In this book Kaisa and Stanley Breeden bring their photographic innovation and vision to Queensland's tropical rainforest. The techniques the Breedens pioneered in Wildflower Country — their exploration of Australia's southwest — are taken to new heights in this companion volume, with striking results. Their pictures capture not only the moods and cycles of the rainforest, but its essence.
