Countless cultures have found it in the magnificence of nature and what can be called the divine gestures of the nature landscape. We looked to the majesty of snowcapped mountains, the glow of the full moon, the power of a magical waterfall, the endless sands of the Sahara Desert, the towering height of the tallest trees and the subtle essence of a lotus flower. We created remarkable buildings to the essence of what we felt to be sacred. What is sacred and what do cultures around the world consider sacred? What is sacred to a Muslim, a Tibetan monk, a Native American, a Christian elder, an atheist, a mountaineer, a poet or an artist?

Chris Rainier has spent the last forty years in search of the sacred––from the peaks of Tibet to the icebergs of Antarctica, from the vibrant mysticism of India to the mysteries of the Silk Road, from the jungles of New Guinea to the druid stones of Scotland, and from the deserts of the Southwest United States to the rock art of aboriginal Australia and Africa. Rainier’s photographs masterfully capture the wonder and awe inherent to all these sites. Sacred presents photographs from this lifelong journey. The collection offers spiritually driven glimpses of ancient monuments and haunting landscapes from around the world––each echoing with the energy of timeless and sacred power places.

RENOWN PHOTOGRAPHER AND AUTHOR: Chris Rainier is a documentary photographer and National Geographic explorer who is highly respected for his documentation of endangered cultures and traditional languages around the globe.

AWARD-WINNING PHOTOGRAPHY: Rainier was Ansel Adams last photo assistant and has contributed numerous photographs for the United Nations, UNESCO, Amnesty International, Conservation International, the Smithsonian Institution, CNN, BBC, NPR, National Geographic, TIME magazine, the New York Times, and LIFE magazine.

CELEBRATED CONTRIBUTORS: Over twelve internationally recognized contributors discuss what sacred means to them and include British essayist and novelist Pico Iyer; ethnographer, writer, photographer, and filmmaker Wade Davis; and Pulitzer Prize winner and National Geographic Fellow Paul Salopek.

Lovely watch i like it a lot i usually never wear watches but this one is exceptional classy and luxurious at a good price. Packaging it also pretty neat comes with instructions and additional wrist pieces for preferred sizing. The best part is the gold color and the ability to be able to tell the Date day and number how cool can't get better than that. Watch feels comfortable and i always see people starring and complimenting. Overall extremely happy purchased over 1 year ago still looking amazing gold dip hasn't rubbed off that much.

The hands and markers are not luminous. I wish the case size was 48mm. But a very nice watch by Nixon.

Great Watch.
Color: Blue Sunray
The watch is overall great. Comes in great packaging and very easy to resize.Tells time pretty accurately once you wind it perfectly. Almost all scratches and scuffs are shown but I would bet that once you buff them out with a polishing rag itll look as good as new. The best feature for me is the glow in the hard hands. I have seen newer models that light up the entire head but since this is an older model, the glow in the dark arms will do. Perfect for a gift, the quality is great!
