Mastiff Images

Author: Hans Rosingh
Publisher: BB Press
Readers will be overwhelmed and touched by the scores of breath-taking pictures, following in swift succession, and totaling more than one hundred. The photographs are divided into sections as puppies, parenthood, head studies, movement, whole studies, games, and veterans, supported by diary entries which will serve to underscore the same emotional response. So many images of this most noble breed, the Mastiff, with its extremely rich history. Every care is taken to complement the fabulous content of this book a true piece of art in print. Hans Rosingh has proven to be more than an extraordinary photographer. He is equally as remarkable as a writer. Look at his numerous diary entries. In a style which is direct and not at all obsessive, he makes observations which are doubtlessly influenced by his scientific training as a biologist, but which instantly strike a cord with every dog lover. Why? Because his texts are a rare mixture of down to earth comments on day to day life dictated by dogs and touching testimonies of the breed he adores. It is no surprise therefore to learn of his dislike of many modern trends such as the newest teaching methods, socialization, etc.
