There and Again: Pictures from the Edge

Filmmaker, photographer, and world-class mountaineer Jimmy Chin goes the place few can observe to seize beautiful photos in death-defying conditions. There and Again attracts from his breathtaking portfolio of pictures, captured over twenty years throughout cutting-edge expeditions on all seven continents—from snowboarding Mount Everest, to an unsupported traverse of Tibet’s Chang Tang Plateau on foot, to first ascents in Chad’s Ennedi Desert and Antarctica’s Queen Maud Land.

Alongside the best way, Chin shares behind-the-scenes particulars about how he captured such astounding photos in inconceivable situations, and tells the tales of the legendary adventurers and memorable athletes he has photographed, together with Alex Honnold, the star of his Academy Award–successful documentary movie Free Solo; ski mountaineer Equipment DesLauriers; snowboarder Travis Rice; and mountaineers Conrad Anker and Yvon Chouinard. 

These larger-than-life photos, coupled with tales of outsized drive and keenness, of inconceivable objectives with life or loss of life stakes, of partnerships solid by unbelievable hardship, are certain to encourage marvel and awe.
