This book, printed on glossy, high quality paper, contains 64 magnificent shots of the wild and wonderful West Virginia.. Payne’s love and reverence for West Virginia’s natural beauty, and his extraordinary ability with a camera, is evident throughout the book. Within its pages you’ll find everything from mountain peaks to river banks, the state’s great black bear, gorgeous whitewater and more. Besides the state’s natural wonders, it also features photos of the Italian Heritage Festival, the Charleston Distance Run, Marshall and WVU football—basically something for everyone. Payne says he hopes these photographs will remind you of your favorite places in the state, or places you’d like to visit. Get outside and explore West Virginia; it’s a very special place. A copy of "West Virginia in Pictures" will give you the incentive to start your travels.
