Robert Llewellyn has been photographing trees and landscapes for almost forty years. His photographs have been featured in major art exhibits, and more than thirty books featuring his photography are in print. His 2007 book, "Empires of the Forest: Jamestown and the Beginning of America", won five national awards in nonfiction and photography, and his "The Capital" was an official diplomatic gift of the White House and State Department. Llewellyn honed his tree photography skills while working on "Remarkable Trees of Virginia" (2008), a four year project, creating landscape photographs that have been called "a spectacular tribute to Virginia's native trees." "Seeing Trees" showcases a new form of photography, however. Using software developed for work with microscopes, Llewellyn creates incredibly sharp close-ups by stitching together 8 to 45 images of each subject #8212; each shot at a different focal point.
