Wonderland: Images of Joshua Tree National Park“Joshua Tree National Park is a very special desert. Striding between the Colorado and the Sonoran Deserts in southern California, the park is justly known for its fantastic rock formations. However, this park has myriad hidden qualities that only time and close observation can reveal. It is a 'hidden wonderland' in ways that can easily elude the casual observer and daytime visitor.

Trees raise their many shaggy arms prostrate to the heavens. Here lie whole worlds of experience” -from the Introduction, by the authorThis volume contains over 118 photographs of Joshua Tree NP, from the small detail to the great panorama. Created by the visual artist Justyn Zolli and observed over the course of 4 days in 2010, this volume is a tribute to the hidden Joshua Tree National Park, a preserve of unexpected mystery and the sublime rhythms of nature.120 pages/photographs in color and b/w©2010 Justyn Zolli
