City Captures

Miami: Visually Speaking is photographer Kiko Ricote’s love letter to the city he calls home — and an conversation-starting addition to any coffeetable book collection.

Stunning aerial cityscapes, vibrant action and perfect detail: You’ll find all of it and more in Kiko Ricote’s beautiful new coffeetable book, Miami: Visually Speaking. With 200 pages of full-color photographs, the book is an eloquent tribute to Ricote’s love of the city he has called home for 3 decades. It took him 2 years to get every image just the way he wanted it, and the entire effort was self-funded — which is impressive, given that many of the shots were taken from a helicopter. But the result more than pays off with a visually-impacting collection of work that reveals the familiar sights of the city from powerful new angles; $65, OfficialMiamiBook.com.
