Ranging from deep inside some of Utah’s most forbidding wilderness to the urban landscapes of the Wasatch Front, from intimate details to huge panoramas, Till’s photographs all utilize the unmatched Utah light that is his primary tool. Using a 4x5 camera and film, Till’s traditional methods include carrying 50 pounds of equipment into the field. Combined with the latest in technology and printed under Till’s direct supervision, the over 140 stunning color photographs are reproduced in exquisite detail and size. This combination of traditional and state-of-the-art yields spectacular results.

Mikenna Clokey’s warm essays are a perfect complement to her father’s images, as she recalls her experiences as a child traveling with Tom on his Utah explorations and her adventures as a river runner. Her affectionate stories of Moab and Green River and her entertaining tales of the people she meets along the way are the perfect counterpoint to Till’s images of Utah’s vast unpopulated wilds. Utah: the Light Fantastic will take its place among the best Utah photograph collections, providing inspiration and enjoyment for years to come.

Join Utah’s most celebrated landscape photographer, Tom Till, as he travels the length and breadth of Utah with his large format camera.

Also included are extended captions by Till, and essays by Mikenna Clokey – writing from the perspective of a new generation of Utahans.
