Non-Fiction Photography
A visual odyssey that
will change the way we see our planet, this remarkable book,
companion
to the acclaimed Discovery Channel/ BBC series, is an
enduring and
awe-inspiring record of one of the most ambitious natural
history
projects ever undertaken. Using the latest aerial surveillance,
state-of-the-art cameras, and high definition technology,
the creators
of Planet Earth have
assembled more than 400 stunning photographs of wondrous natural
landscapes from around the globe, including incredible
footage of the
rarely spotted, almost mythical creatures that live in these
habitats.
Many of the images reveal inaccessible places that few have
seen and
record animal behavior that has never been filmed or
photographed
before. With the help of this highly advanced technology and the
world's premier wildlife photographers, the book takes us on a
spectacular journey from the world's greatest rivers and
impressive
gorges, to its mightiest mountains, hidden caves and
caverns, and vast
deserts. Planet Earth captures breathtaking sequences of
predators and their prey, lush vistas of forests viewed from
the tops
of towering trees, the oceans and their mysterious creatures
viewed
from beneath the surface, and much more--in a magnificent
adventure
that brings unknown wonders of the natural world into our
living rooms.
