| Publisher Description: After receiving the gift of a simple camera at the age of eight, the author developed a passion for nature photography, which he pursued relentlessly throughout his working career and continuing into his retirement. This book presents a unique collection of over 1000 of his photographs, covering an exceptionally wide variety of wildlife ranging from small insects to elephants, obtained over a period of over 70 years, not only from Africa but various destinations in other parts of the world. This is accompanied by an informative text describing the author's experiences, interesting details of many of the subjects, and where and how they were photographed. It is indeed a celebration of the incredible diversity of life that awaits discovery by anyone who simply takes the trouble to observe the creatures and plants, large and small alike, that surround him or her. They will be richly rewarded. |
