Description
The Photographs offers readers an inside look at National Geographic and a sharp-eyed view of the world. The book showcases the skill and imagination of such notable Geographic photographers as David Doubilet, William Albert Allard, Sam Abell, Jim Stanfield, Jodi Cobb, Jim Brandenburg, David Alan Harvey, and many more. They share their techniques, as well as personal and colorful anecdotes about individual images and their adventures in the field-sometimes humorous, sometimes terrifying, always vividly compelling. Author Leah Bendavid-Val writes about the photographers' achievements from technical, journalistic, and artistic perspectives.

Our customer reviews
A beautiful collection of photos in a small book. For a hardcover book it is surprisingly small, but it's actually this fact that has so many people I know enamoured with it. The photos are excellent quality, so although it's size can be a little frustrating it's still a treasure.show more

Thought the price was too good to be true!
The photos are fantastic, but the book is *tiny*. I mean really, really, small. And even then, some of the pictures are not even full page, but cover only a portion.
If you've *amazingly* good eyesight you might enjoy this. But even then you'll be wishing you could see the photos in a larger format.
The plus point is that the pictures are so good. But the negative is that you absolutely cannot enjoy them in this minuscule format.show more
