\"Diverse Practices, the third book in the Active Landscape Photography series presents a set of unique photographic examples for site specific investigations of landscape places. Contributed by authors across academia, practice and photography each chapter serves as both a rigorous discussion about the photographic methods and their underlying concepts and case studies of specific projects, places and landscape issues. Specific project sites include the Miller Garden, Olana, XX Miller Prize and the Philando Castile Peace Garden. Landscape places discussed include the archeological landscapes of north Peru, watery littoral zones, the remote White Pass in Alaska, Sau Paulo, and New York City's Chinatown.

These diverse practices demonstrate how photography, when utilized through a set of specific critical methods, becomes rich processes for investigating the landscape. Exploring this concept in relationship to specific contemporary sties and landscape issues reveals the intricacy and subtlety that exists when photography is used actively. Practitioners, academics, students and researchers will be inspired by the underlying concepts of these examples and come away with a better understanding about how to create their own rigorous photographic practices\"-- Provided by publisher.
