In an array of some 300 photos, Fischer seizes flashes of intimacy and intricacy from everyday scenes that decelerate the pace, engage the imagination and help readers appreciate life anew. For example, conjuring up a waterfall may calm the spirit in a traffic jam, while the sliver of a peaceful beach could melt city crowds away. Recalling dramatic shadows from the play of sunlight and moonlight can transport the preoccupied mind onto a different plane. And summoning images of flora and fauna can add warmth and affection to a day.
Readers will benefit from the mental space created by Simple Beauty where they can stop and smell the roses. There, they will be transported into a galaxy where the elements deliver inspiration, challenge and bliss. Inside this complex universe are milliseconds of spiritual messaging that escape the ordinary eye, perhaps never to return. And this book is their passport to visiting this world time and again.
