One of @NatGeo's most popular nature photographers shares 200 breathtaking images -- and the stories behind them -- from a wide swath of wild ocean locales around the globe.

From gregarious gray whales plying the waters of Baja California to acrobatic manta rays in the Maldives and parading penguins in Antarctica, National Geographic photographer Thomas Peschak has spent a lifetime documenting the beauty and fragility of underwater life and the majesty of wild coastlines.

This awe-inspiring book of photography charts his transformation from marine biologist to full-time conservation advocate, armed with little more than a mask, fins and a camera. In these vivid pages, Peschak photographs sharks in a feeding frenzy, tracks sea turtles the size of bears, and dodges marine poachers, to reveal the splendor of pristine seas as well as the dark side of pollution, overfishing, and climate change.

Filled with magnificent images from Southern Africa, the Galpagos, Seychelles, and more, this illuminating collection offers an impassioned case for revering--and preserving--the world's oceans.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express


Vasile Decu - Biblioteca Exploratorilor Moderni a dat nota:

O colecție de imagini „wow”, aproape suprarealiste, din ecosisteme marine de prin toată lumea, din largul coastelor Africii la cele americane, de la Galápagos la Antarctica. Spectacole grandioase, cu rechini, țestoase uriașe și balene. De formație biolog marin, Thomas Peschak spune că poate ajuta mai mult prin imaginile sale, pentru a ne arăta cât de frumoase sunt oceanele și că trebuie să învățăm să coexistăm cu toate aceste creaturi minunate.
