The Spirit
of Costa Rica: Honoring the Elements
By Chris Migliaccio
"In 1992, my family and I traveled to Costa Rica
for the first time. I quickly fell in love with
the land and its people, so I've been returning
at least once a year since that time - traveling
all over the country and shooting photos. Some
of my most memorable life experiences have come
from these adventures.
In 2010, I co-taught a college Honors Earth
Literacy & Sustainability course in the
Monteverde area. We used David Suzuki's "The
Sacred Balance" as our primary text and the
combination of readings, fieldwork, and student
responses to his unique perspective sparked the
ideas that lead to this book. Two additional
Summer visits to create images followed by
countless hours selecting and reprocessing
images produced this view of the elements with a
Costa Rican flavor.
