Mark Dahle Portfolios can be read in a few minutes and then enjoyed for a lifetime. Thought-provoking and beautiful, they feature an unusual combination of compelling photographs, brilliant paintings and deceptively simple text.

This portfolio includes:

a beautiful abstract painting
twenty-five outstanding photos from Eastern Washington
a story about a gibbon who liked adventures and got one in Big Desert

From the book:

Little Gibbon had no water, no sunscreen, no compass and no sandals. He entered Big Desert smiling. Who needs those things when you want an adventure?

By now, you can probably guess what the answer is.
