I am a big fan of wildlife photography. This new large sized book is a great new book for me. It has 2 skilled photographers who shared photos they had taken on trips together as well as on individuals adventures. These are large animals ranging from Arctic, to Antarctic as well as all sorts of marine life (fish and mammals) and then of course my favorites from both Africa and also North America.
One part that i really like is the captions include a bit on either the animal and/or the places they photographed them. On several shots they note how long it took for them to get these great shots. That long wait time is especially impressive on some of the Arctic and alpine photoshoots. I would have given up just because of the cold.
One other thing worth mentioning, physically its a pretty book, especially its cover. I think its a great gift to give!
