Presumably Eleanor Williams supplied the fifteen-page poetic discourse and Wesley Stacey was the photographer. The preamble commences with 'No human thought has fashioned these gardens, no human hand has sown the seeds or watered the plants. They occur where the marks of man are minimal and are in a process of constant change'.
