The Eye of the Woods, a photographic journey by Eleanor Smith, is a nature photography and poetry book. I self-published the book in January 2023. It’s the first in a planned series of three.
The pandemic changed for two years how we lived our lives. Like many others, I felt a need to escape the depressive headlines and the stifling time spent working from home. Nature played a therapeutic role in my life; it offered me a sense of freedom in nature.
I found peace and time to think and to feel. This book is intended as an expression of that. I combine photography and writing with the goal of showing nature from her therapeutic side. I want to inspire others to stop, breathe, look around, and find peace.
