Should have paid attention to a reviewer who was dissatisfied because the photos extend through the binding, so they're "broken." Better to have slightly smaller images that are complete on 1 page. Thought I'd be riveted, but I'm disappointed. Wouldn't have bought it if I'd leafed through it in a store. If you want to find a gift for a photographer, or a "coffee table book" for passing the time, keep looking.
I bought two of these for my nieces, each of which has two small children. I thought it would be a nice way for Mom to help the kiddies learn about color, and about the world around. It worked, both of them loved it and so did their kids. The photographs in this book are superlative, making it a great family coffee table book as well. A photographer (which I am) could learn a lot about using color from these photos. A winner in every way.
This is a gorgeous book full of a variety of photos rich colors. It is printed in Italy ( not China). If you enjoy photography, I highly recommend this book. It is not small so it's a feast for the eyes.I took off one point because I feel there should have been info on the type of camera used, the lens & if photoshop was used. For those of us beginners in photography, it would help to learn as we are oooing and aaahing over the photos.I still would recommend this book highly for the quality of paper and the sharpness of color. It's one of the best book that National Geographic has and IS NOT PRINTED IN CHINA.the Italian printers have done a nice job.Buy it for the lovely photography.
I purchased this as a gift to my son for his college graduation. His dream is to be a NatGeo photographer, so this was the perfect gift. Beautiful photos! I liked the arrangement by color and the quotes to help instill what the colors signify. My son was very pleased with the book.
I'm a photographer, and i love to see quality photos from National Geographic and try to learn from them, that why i buy all their photography books...so far i did fell in love with all of them,..and this book is not an exception :):):)
Wonderful book with great photographs, as you'd expect from National Geographic. Only issue was the topless woman on one page who made it a slightly embarrassing gift to give to pastor father-in-law...
I returned the Book. I did not see anything special nor New on it. You can find information on the last pages on how to buy prints of the photographs in the National Geographic's website, but when I visited the website. None of the pictures that I liked were available. The book I found it a little boring and uninspiring.
Every single photo is just exquisite. A book of beautiful pictures that a person can enjoy over and over again.All of them are breath taking and vibrant. Each picture is accompanied with a brief sentence that describes where it is and what it is.
