  • The first edition is full of beautiful photography and inspired, thoughtful writing. I'm excited to see where Nick and Murray take this project, as it seems like an important contribution to the field of nature photography.

  • You guys really knocked it out of the park! I really can't think of anything I would change. It was really a pleasure to read though, because all of your contributors are amazing writers and artists. The layout is flowing and balanced, and all of the photos sync well with the articles. I also love the fact that it's only 35 pages.

  • I thoroughly enjoyed Poetic Visuals, as much for the stunning images, as for the deep and incisive writing — I highly encourage everyone to download their copy.

    Dario Perizzolo

  • Incredible project and images throughout Poetic Visuals, all I can say is thank you and congratulations.
