Matt Payne

In this episode of Biblioscapes in Discussion, I am joined by Matt Payne to talk about his work and his book The Colorado Way.

This project is for anyone who finds peace in the mountains, seeks clarity in nature, or is drawn to stories of growth and resilience. With over 140 images, 25 essays, and custom topographic maps, this book offers more than beautiful scenery - it’s a guide to living with intention, told through the wild terrain of Colorado.

We also discussed a selection of Matt’s favourite photobooks from his own bookshelf…

• The Great Wilderness by Alex Nail

• The Colour of Dreams by Wayne Suggs

• The Landscape by Paul Wakefield

• Industrial Scars by J Henry Fair

• Coversations with Nature by Eric Bennett
