About the Book
This large format book is about the new GoPro camera introduced a few years back that had brought action picture and video to the world, easily seen today on the internet. The various events that are now captured from a camera with a head mount only reminded him of the various picture adventures he had back to 1960's that put him on skis, underwater, in military jet flight over Korea and the USA, with underwater photo adventures from the Virgin Islands, Mexico, and The Great Barrier Reef of Australia and Thailand, etc. The book does not move, but the pictures you may find unique and very entertaining right up to making similar action packed pictures today.

About the Creator
Jim W. Vestal
Clayton, CA,
I was a news photographer and picture editor for seven newspapers, and member of the National Press Photographers Assc. since 1956. A Life Member of the San Francisco Bay Area Press Photographers Association, after being the Picture Editor at The Sacramento (CA) Union (1968-89), New York Newsday (1989-94), and Contra Costa Times (1994-96) when I retired after 40-years in the newspaper business - starting as a shooter since 1956. I'm retired but still shoot and actively travel today for my own interest. The assorted blurb.com books have turned out to be a way to gather many of my images for nice and simple presentations.
