Description

‘Hastings – A Four Season County’ is the second book included in the Tagona Press ‘Four Seasons Ontario’ landscape photography series. Joining 2021 North American Independent Publishing award-winner (Best Canadian Non-Fiction) ‘Prince Edward – A Four Season County’, and companion Fall 2022 Tagona releases ‘Durham – A Four Season Region’, and ‘Algoma – Solemn Land’, this unique Hastings work tells the story of a southern Ontario locale where Nature is everywhere.

Photographers Jim Buck, Rene Fisher, Janet Foster, John Foster, and Phil Norton have collectively captured this Hastings beauty with their camera lenses and inner artistic eyes. A subtle, diverse, and captivating Hastings unfolds across the pages. Images of the Bay of Quinte and Belleville stand in sharp yet compelling contrast to well-ordered County farmlands and spectacular Canadian Shield region beauty. A definable Hastings spirit emerges from these photographs, where natural and human landscape features have unique interplays that inspire reader reactions ranging from ‘Wow’ to more subtle contemplations regarding this place and its importance.

Tagona is proud to present this remarkable Ontario locale in all of its sweeping Four Seasons’ beauty. This work has special significance beyond the beautiful locales depicted across its pages. ‘Hastings’ marks the latest chapter in the remarkable careers of John and Janet Foster (Tweed, Ontario), and their over 50 years of shared photographic, documentary filmmaking, and storytelling brilliance adding a special lustre. At various points in this Hastings retrospective, John and Janet add their personal observations that tell a complementary ‘story behind the photograph’. We hope that you enjoy how these acclaimed Canadians have supplemented sublime visual artistry with their words.
