Overview

Heart of Photography by John McQuade and Miriam Hall continues the practice of Nalanda Miksang Contemplative Photography from the first volume, Looking and Seeing. In this volume, we enter together into the deep heart teachings of the fields of perception, with topics like Ordinary/Personal World and People and Other Sentient Beings, and more. In the fields of perception, it is natural to connect deeply with our ordinary lives, only to find therein lies profound ordinary magic. Even if you haven’t read the first volume, Heart of Photography is a powerful entry into the world of contemplative photography.
