“Anyone who sees this gothic, hauntingly religious, original artistry – which Geras began developing an eye for in his earlier years – will behold a story’s snapshot: a story told only in the imagination of the viewer. While retaining a history through reflection of both light and shadows over aged beauty, the pictures in this book will nonetheless be cherished for their astonishing, sometimes breathtakingly smoky power; for the revelation of authentic textures and patterns show a depth beyond the two-dimensional image on the page.” Landscape photography is an art form which can transcend time and space. What can transform one person to a place they have previously visited, can just as easily transform another to a location they only dream of reaching. What stands out most in Geras’ landscape art form is that it captures your attention; the play of light and shadows pulling you from one end of the picture to the other. - Michael James Grant
“Photography is as much about what is just beyond the picture frame as what is in its focus. When landscape unfolds itself in the camera lens, we find ourselves ushered to distant quiet places. But for all its nature, the true, invisible subject of pastoral imagery is time. James Scott Geras records the intersection between wilderness and humanity to reveal the coincidence between a specific moment and timelessness.” – Laura Richard Janku
“Moody and evocative nature scenes truly incorporate the notion of time and space as the representational foundation of reality.” - Richard Pitnick, Black and White Magazine
“My work has been called a blend of fantasy and reality and that all things are not as they seem. The inconsistency of the constant and the fact reality is always just beyond the boundary of imagination, has allowed my work to evolve through the years.” - James Scott Geras |
