Product Description
In Temples: A Photographic Journey of Temples, Lands, and People, renowned and award-winning photographer Don Busath invites us on a pictorial tour of more than forty-five temples located around the world. He takes us to the temples themselves – and then moves beyond the temple grounds and into the cities, cultures, and countrysides that surround each one. By combining three illustrative techniques – architectural, pictorial, and street photography – Busath emphasizes the idea that temples may be in the world even thought they certainly are not of the world. As the pictures take us from the historical to the modern, and from the urban to the rural, the beauty of the buildings and their world surroundings are breathtaking, individual, and inspirational. "It is my hope that though this book members of the Church will enjoy a pleasant recognition of the rich diversity of the temples that now dot the earth," writes Don Busath. "I hope that the images presented here will give the reader a sense that the Church is indeed a worldwide family. As you leaf through these pages and see the many styles of building and design, with samplings of the communities they represent, I hope you can feel the warmth of those communities. My greatest hope, though, is that each member of the Church will feel what I have come to feel – a sort of ownership of these sacred edifices and especially a membership in the great worldwide family of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints."
