Baseball Heaven

A rare treasure, BASEBALL HEAVEN is actually two books in one. As a photographic work, BASEBALL HEAVEN stands out as a stunning collection of lustrous black & white images; haunting, romantic, surreal. A photographer for 15 years, Mr. Atkins has a keen, well-developed eye, singular in its artistic vision. The photography of BASEBALL HEAVEN stands on its own among artistic works past & present. The photographic insert is a visual element of a visual novel. The artwork is mated with a screenplay, a concept rarely, if ever, recognized. The photographs reflect the mood of the screenplay, visual cues used to stimulate the mind's eye; a companion piece to the story. And what a story: A coach's romantic involvement with a young girl/child, while a female colleague gains awareness. The story takes flight in California, landing somewhere in the arid highlands of Northern New Mexico. The relationships develop, as intriguing as they are unsettling. A scandal, a mystery, BASEBALL HEAVEN is a beautiful dream. It's not about baseball.
