Samenvatting:

Set amid the sacred landscapes of Oregon's High Desert, Guardians of the High Desert is a richly woven photo essay that blends wildlife photography, Indigenous symbolism, and lyrical reflection. What began with an eagle's flight over Harper Bridge deepened into a visual and spiritual journey-one that explores guardianship, kinship, and the sacred rhythm between land and sky.

Through evocative images of eagles, owls, elk, and ancestral ridgelines, accompanied by poetic narratives and cultural educational notes, the book honors the spirit of place. Each chapter becomes a ceremony in motion: remembering the fledgling's stretch, the owl's silence, the hawk's ritual dance. Indigenous wisdom and ecological insight guide the reader into a deeper relationship with both creature and earth.

This is not merely a book about wildlife. It is a book about reverence. A visual prayer for those who pause beneath wide skies.
