註釋A glimpse into the life of the author's grandfather, James Alfred Myer along with a reproduction of 265 of his photos from glass plate negatives held by family members. Alfred loved natural light, and like his contemporary artists, impressionist painters, Manet and Monet, light was his subject. His favorite landscapes were photographed over and over again as the sunlight, the seasons, and the clouds changed. He was always experimenting with new poses, unusual subject matter and unique views. The photos in this book portray the broad range of subject matter that the photographer discovered within a few miles of his studio in Milford, Pennsylvania and offers a vision of that charming world of a hundred years ago. James Alfred Myer sought to discover, create and record the beautiful. He found it in the common scenes and people that were part of his world. He had an eye for beauty. His camera was his eye. His photos are his art. he was an artist.--
