'The fragmented stories and haunted photographs in Paul Scraton and Eymelt Sehmer's In the Pines feel like field recordings from the shadow forest of their imaginations, transcribed into the pages of an old Explorer's Journal. I felt like I had gone into the forest, rucksack packed with Binoculars, Compass, Penknife, Whistle, Magnifying glass, Notebook, Pencil... and this haunting, collodion-eerie book..' - Jeff Youngl, author of Ghost Town In the Pines is author Paul Scraton's story of an unnamed narrator's lifelong relationship with the forest and the mysteries it contains, told through fragmented stories that capture the blurred details and sharp focus of memory.. Accompanied by eerie images created using a 170-year-old technique of collodion wet plate photography by Eymelt Sehmer, In the Pines is a powerfully evocative collaboration between image and text
