May I dare ask if the book format is for the coffee table kind? If it is, consider me as your first customer...I am a teetotaler but I like to have one for the photos shot by a friend to show off in the form of a book, a real one, not the digital kind. So far my coffee table books by photographic friends comprises of a New Mexico travel book and a cook book. It will be nice to add yours to my collection there...

The book goes for 70,00 € plus 28,00 € for packaging and international post.
The special book-box may contain up to three books, and the second and third
book will cost much less postage wise if sent in one single parcel. -

An email came in asking more specific info about the book!
To answer question 1:
This book is divided in four chapters:
1. What you can see… if you do like most, staying on main roads and have a short stay.
2. What you could see… if you don't mind getting in side roads and take a bit of time.
3. What you should see… if you want to really explore and learn about this region of the world.
4. What you may not see… those private properties to which I had access but promised not to reveal any information about the owner or location. These prestigious sites are the homes of their occupants and not open to the public.
To answer question 2:
No, the book is not a photo gallery but an episodic reportage on the land, its people, culture, history etc.
To answer question 3:
Yes, you are right, it is indeed referred to, by many, as the austrian Tuscany for its beautiful hilly landscapes and micro-climat.
To answer question 4:
a. No, it is not a master class in photography. It contains some photographs that may require most sophisticated gear but mostly the sceneries and subjects are readily available to the "explorer" with anything from the P&S to DSLR …except for chapter 4 that is!
b. No, the book contains no lesson nor tips. Many told me that they have learned a lot only by observing the features of given pictures.
c. Well, the book is more descriptive poetry than anything else.
To answer question 5:
The postal price system works in bracket levels. The first "X"kg cost "Y" €, the next level costs so much until this many kilos. It just so happens that the weight of three book plus the box fall in the second bracket and the price, divided by three, makes the postage more reasonable for each book even for international post service.
Don't worry, it's all my pleasure and thank you for your interest. -
