About the Book

Beautiful portraits of farm animals that bring to life their sparkling personalities and stories. Photographs of animals — From cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens to Dolly the wooly llama, Bianca the Sicilian miniature donkey, Percy the Indian peafowl, and Justice the yak. Some of the animals are pets; others live happily on farms and sanctuaries. Heartwarming stories — Traer Scott shares her anecdotes about a Texas longhorn steer whose best friends are a trio of goats, a turkey who likes to snack on grapes and watermelon, and many others. Informative facts — Did you know donkeys' stubbornness is a well-honed survival tactic? That Scottish Highland cattle are the oldest registered breed of cattle in the world? Scott's captions combine detailed histories of the breeds with the personal sagas to create enchanting tributes to our four-legged (and winged) friends from the farm. If you liked Finding Home: Shelter Dogs and Their Stories, Nocturne: Creatures of the Night, Raptors: Portraits of Birds of Prey, then you'll love Radiant: Farm Animals Up Close and Personal.

Review :
"Gregarious or shy, placid, playful of retiring, all the animals in Traer Scott’s newest collection have one thing in common – great looks and personality. This whimsical photo collection focuses on the lives and history of livestock both familiar and lesser known, from cows, sheep and poultry to Dolly the woolly llama and Bianca the Sicilian miniature donkey. This is an intriguing book with enchanting photography over 120 pages." "IN THIS new book from photographer Traer Scott, we find ourselves presented with an unusual subject. Portraits of animals are not unusual per se but these images offer us an intimate insight into animals. Cows, pigs, chickens and sheep gaze into the camera lens; all of them are farmyard animals. Any photography book that deals with a subject such as this will inevitably mention the ethics surrounding the industrial scale of meat farming, providing us with the food we consume daily. However, Scott is keen to point out that this volume is not concerned with taking sides and instead she chooses to take an objective approach to the subjects. Not all of the animals featured are kept for slaughter, some are kept as pets." '“Pigs,” writes the American photographer Traer Scott, in the introduction to her new book, Radiant: Farm Animals Up Close and Personal, “remind me of huge, brainy, food-obsessed toddlers.” Pictured here is a Yorkshire Cross named Ben David, born as a runt, and brought up in the care of a woman who bottle fed and potty trained him, until he was ready to stand on his own four feet. Nowadays, he lives at an animal sanctuary, where he has a new surrogate mother in the form of a sow named Honey, to whom he is, says Scott, “very attached.”' "Ben David the Yorkshire cross pig [...] is one of 42 rescued farm animals that American photographer Traer Scott recruited for her new book, Radiant. Scott spent a year trying to capture the best side of a dwarf goat or lure chickens to her backdrop. Farm animals, she says, live in the shadows of domestic and exotic animals."
