 Richard Bickel's photography crosses 70 countries and has been published throughout the world. His passion for exotic waters -- Africa's Niger and Burma's Irawaddy Rivers -- brought him to Apalachicola in 1994. He has since been capturing the rich culture of Florida's last stand, publishing his best-selling photo essay book The Last Great Bay in 2002. In 2004, his Apalachicola images appeared in a New York Times cover story profiling the profoundness of the area. A recipient of the Golden Quill Award for Photography and the New York Art Director's Club Award, Bickel has contributed to numerous books published by National Geographic and Travel & Leisure. He has worked for numerous magazines, including Islands, Saveur, Sports Afield, Civilization Stern (Germany) and Geo (France). |
