Photographer, teacher, and author Guy Tal has been photographing the landscape for more than 30 years, and in that time he has also been consistently contributing to the literature of photography, culminating in The Interior Landscape: The Landscape on Both Sides of the Camera from Rocky Nook. He writes not about the technical aspects of the photograph, like the gear, exposure details, and secrets to getting a great shot, but rather about the deeper topics of visual expression, creativity, art, and life.

He builds on the legacy of his previous best-selling books, "More Than a Rock" and "Another Day Not Wasted" and is a regular contributor to LensWork and On Landscape magazines. The Interior Landscape is a collection of more than 60 brief essays packaged in an attractive hardcover format and illustrated throughout with Guy's stunning photography.

The book is organized into four parts: Creativity and expression as the most significant aspects of making art; the controversial and tenuous relationship between photography and art; how he has formed a relationship with the natural landscape, and how he expresses these meanings in his photographs; and lessons learned from more than three decades of practicing expressive landscape photography. The book is for anyone interested in turning inward to explore creativity, art, expression, and the landscape. It is sure to illuminate, educate, and inspire you on your photographic journey.
