Books and other stuff based on Jens H. Petersens photographs
Blomsterliv / Flowerlife , 2014 |
Blomsteliv er en anderledes blomsterbog, som gennem ultra-makro fotografier viser detaljerne i støvblade, grifler, hår og pollen – det er blomsternes intimeste dele, der afsløres. Søren Ryge skrev i politiken: "Det er grundlæggende biologi, men det er også voldsomt fascinerende, fordi selv de ydmygeste planter gør det så elegant, overraskende og smukt, nogle gange næsten sensuelt, at man gisper igen og igen. Tænk, hvis denne bog havde eksisteret, dengang seksualundervisningen begyndte med blomster og bier. Så ville selv Indre Mission have rødmet og bladret videre i smug." – se her.
Flowerlife is a different flower-book showing details of stamens, anthers, hairs and pollen through ultra macro photographs – a most extreme and intimate flower-display. |
The Kingdom of Fungi , 2013 |
The Kingdom of Fungi is a book on the biology, ecology, morphology and systematics of fungi. If you have always wondered what fungi are and how they live, this is the place to start. The book aims to be self explanatory through more than 800 illustrations and contains a minimum of text. In a way it is my old Danish mycological textbook »Svamperiget« (see below) made intelligible for the rest of the world. The book has 265 pages. See review by David Hawksworth and interview by Pedro Crous in IMA Fungus |
