Homer W. Sykes Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)

As Shanghai enters the 21st-century, this most dynamic of Chinese cities looks back over a decade of phenomenal growth. It is a focus for foreign investment and futuristic architecture, yet the city’s international past is still very much in evidence. In the crowded streets and shopping malls there is an unabashed enthusiasm for consumer-ism and a great capacity to enjoy whatever life has to offer. Syke’s pictures range from moments of personal intimacy to industrial projects, and his work achieves a subtle chemistry between photo-journalism and fine art photography. The photographs are accompanied by perceptive captions and a lively chronology of historical events. Homer Sykes travels widely on assignment throughout the world.

Covering the late Neolithic period, and the Bronze, Iron and Dark Ages, Sykes touches on several aspects of the Celtic landscape of ritual. What this book lacks in text it more than makes up for in stunning photography. The author's sphere of knowledge stretches as far as contemporary Celts, and the modern performance of Celtic ritual in its various religious and secular guises.
