What They're Saying
Critics Review
“It is easy to lapse into the commonplace or the cliché with landscape photography; it is difficult to find the photographic expression Varjabedian is after. And he succeeds. This is not so much a book of look at what’s out there as much as look at what I feel when I’m looking at what’s out there.” – W. Scott Olsen * Frames *“The artist skillfully chronicles his immersion into this breathtakingly vast and strikingly intimate world and reveals the stories of this otherworldly place through emotionally evocative photographs. Varjabedian has suspended in time the many magical moments he experienced while chronicling the unique White Sands landscape.” * The Eye of Photography *“If you prefer open space and simplicity, this award-winning photographer takes you there with an eye for detail, contrast, and composition… . Beautifully done.” * Enchantment *Put professional equipment into the hands of a master like Craig Varjabedian and he’ll find stunning beauty, great recreation, and a few surprises… . The pictures truly are the thing. And they are gorgeous.–New Mexico Magazine
