The newest collection from award-winning photographer Keith Carter, Ghostlight, captures the otherworldly spirits of swamps, marshes, bogs, baygalls, bayous, and fens in more than a hundred photographs. From Ossabaw Island, Georgia, to his home ground of East Texas, Carter seeks \"the secretive and mysterious\" of this often-overlooked landscape: wisps of fog drifting between tree branches; faceless figures contemplating a bog; owls staring directly at the camera lens; infinite paths leading to unknown parts. Similarly, spectral images are evoked in the original short story that opens this book. Ghostlight, writes best-selling author Bret Anthony Johnston, \"hovers, darts, disappears. It can be as mean as a cottonmouth, as mischievous as a child. The closer you get, the farther the light recedes.\" A masterpiece of \"Bayou Gothic,\" Ghostlight challenges our perceptions and invites us to experience the beauty of this elusive world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSouthern wetlands, with their moss-draped trees and dark water obscuring mysteries below, are eerily beautiful places, home to ghost stories and haunting, ethereal light.
