Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Best wildlife photography book
I have bought & borrowed many wildlife books and out of all of them this is the best one I have ever seen. The photography is excellent, and the colors are so vibrant they make you fell as if you are watching the animals live.

All kinds of different animals are featured in this fascinating book. A turtle is shown with a mosquito on its nose and a baby dear is pictured while it sleeps. A squirrel eats a dandelion stem & mice gather around an ear of corn.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Super Book !
This book is a great example of how tame and captive animals can be photographed and passed off as wild. The color reproduction of this book is unmatchable, as is the sharpness of the pictures. Although it may be difficult to identify the computer manipulated from those which have not been tampered with, the everyday nature enthusiast will find this book a good add for the coffee table. Good luck finding these animals in the wild!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A visit with these indredible photographers!

The time and engergy this photographic team take in becoming part ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Beautiful Design - - Noteworthy pictures
Although one may question if these images are "wild", the layout and quality of this book will be difficult to beat. It is apparent that the publisher has assembled a first class book with the highest quality photographs to be found. If you are looking for true, unmanipulated wildlife photography, there may be better choices. However if a colorful coffee table book with lots of stories is what you are after, this is the book for you.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Breathtaking, awesome, beautiful
This book is the most beautiful wildlife book I have ever seen. Each picture comes to life. I have given this book to five members of my family or friends and each has commented on how wonderful it is and how much they have enjoyed it. This book is certainly worth owning!!!!!!!
