Reviews

“A ‘picture book’ of the highest caliber. This is one of the most calming and beautiful books I've ever purchased. Mr. Taylor's hauntingly insightful photographs portray the true nature of Coastal Carolina and give the reader/viewer a true insight into the ways of life ‘Downeast.’ The introduction and foreword are as comforting and peaceful as the photos. This is a book to dream through after a harried day. I'd move there in a minute if it weren't for the fact that (I'm proud to say) I already have. Heaven is truly closer here by North Carolina's ‘Coastal Waters.’”

“A landmark book, Coastal Waters reflects the creative genius of a natural photographer in complete harmony with his world. Not since Ansel Adams's in-depth studies of the dynamic and ever-changing landscape of the West has another artist been so in touch with the life and images in his daily world. Please give us more of this talented young man's work.”
