Seeing the Sourlands
by Jim Amon
Seeing the Sourlands is a collection of 60 photo-essays featuring plants, insects, birds and other natives of the Sourland region.
Jim Amon has enlightened and entertained Sourland Conservancy’s members since 2015 with his amazing essays and photographs. Jim generously donated his photo-essays to the Sourland Conservancy for publication to support our mission. It has been our great fortune and privilege to be the recipient of this gift. Jim’s skill and passion as a writer, photographer and nature-lover shine through every one of his photo-essays.
Your purchase directly supports our work to protect, promote and preserve the Sourlands.
