Sanna Kannistos Metier ist die Naturfotografie. Wie ihre Vorbilder sieht sie sich dabei sowohl als Wissenschaftlerin als auch als Künstlerin. Und tatsächlich steht ihr analytischer Blick ihrer Kreativität und Leidenschaft in nichts nach. Sie schafft Momente von außergewöhnlicher Schönheit, die zugleich Verborgenes ans Licht bringen. Für ihre Aufnahmen von Vögeln bedient sie sich einer eigenen Arbeitsweise. Sie nimmt die Tiere vor einem extra hierfür ausgeleuchteten, weißen Hintergrund auf. Herausgelöst aus ihrer gewohnten Umgebung tritt jedes Detail in unnachahmlicher Klarheit hervor und erlaubt ein genaues Studium. Zugleich entsteht eine eigene Bildästhetik: Das Gefieder erstrahlt hell, der Flügelschlag gewinnt eine majestätische Qualität und das tiefe Schwarz der Vogelaugen scheint eindringlich Richtung Kamera zu blicken. Die nötige Geduld, um diese Aufnahmen zu realisieren, hat sich gelohnt. Denn schöner als in diesen Aufnahmen lassen sich Vögel kaum darstellen.

Destined to become the defining work on the subject, this timely reference addresses the single fastest growing segment of the senior living industry -- assisted living for those who are unable to live independently but who do not need intensive nursing home care, meals, housekeeping, or twenty-four hour access to medical assistance. Victor Regnier?s visually rich guide includes dozens of design solutions from successful assisted living facilities along with fifteen case studies from the U.S. and Europe. The book also covers recent developments in the industry including major changes in financing, growth of dementia, and interest in aging-in-place. All in all, this is the most comprehensive guide to assisted living design that you'll find in any single volume.

This edited open access volume explores the role of forest bioeconomy in addressing climate change. The authors put a particular focus on planetary boundaries and how the linear, growth-oriented economy, is coupled with climate change and environmental degradation. Biobased products and sustainable production paths have been developed, but how can they be scaled in order to lead to an economic paradigm shift? This and other questions are discussed throughout the volume. Since science indicates that climate change will continue this century, the authors also analyse how forests can be adapted to increasing forest disturbances that changing climate are expected to cause. The authors propose cl...
