  • “With unspoken irony, Lynne Buchanan’s photographs expose the toxic destruction of Florida’s inland waters and coastal areas in a devastating indictment of unrestrained industrialization and reckless development. She has crisscrossed the state to find and bear witness to the devastation that we might see, understand, and be moved to action to remediate the situation in this state, which is a bellwether for the rest of the country.”

    Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

  • “As a father, teacher, and citizen, I am beyond thankful to have someone as talented as Lynne Buchanan care enough to show how Florida’s waterways are changing, perhaps inspiring some of us to act just a bit more wisely and conscientiously. Maybe, just maybe, the tortuous path of reclaiming beauty in the waters is the same path that will give us the best hope of saving ourselves.”

    Jason M. Evans

  • “Buchanan’s stirring images of broad, hopeful horizons and the tenacity of nature contrast terrifying close-ups of human impacts... Florida’s Changing Waters captures a fading beauty, still visible, but rapidly running out of time.” )

  • “Fabulous book, full of well-printed wonderful images. While there are many outstanding images, the one on the front dust jacket that is on page 201 is a knockout. Although the subject matter is different, reminds me of some of Eliot Porters work.”

  • “Lynne Buchanan’s vivid pictures of Florida’s changing waters, both pristine and despoiled, remind us of the present and the past, what we once had and what we have now, and the depleted future we may bequeath to our children’s children. Her images further remind us that greed and ignorance, the failure of personal responsibility and government oversight must be overcome if Florida is to avoid losing its endangered springs, leaving a depleted future to those who follow.”

  • "Particularly evocative for me are the photographs taken in forest glens, out of the way places seldom seen by urban dwellers, where streams meander, tree roots reach into the water and grip the world below. Notes on the photographs appear in the back of the book. I read them all, not just to find out locations but the notes contain her thoughts, what drew her to this place and some of its history."
