A truly awe inspiring book September 9, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just got this book. I highly recommend to all. It gives you a unique vision of the beauty of our natural world. I have some interesting Listmania lists on nature photography and landscape painting on my profile if you would like to look more into this subject.

Awesome photos & wondeful muticultrual text August 18, 1999 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
This is a truly unique and fascinating coffee table book. Photographs as well as poems, scriptures, stories, myths, & legends are taken from all over the world & encompass many different cultures.The pictures are spectacular. They will take you to the misty mountains of China & then let you travel to the lush green forests of Italy. You will also witness the golden sun melting softly into the beautiful Australian coast. You can then observe zebras grazing the Serengeti Plain or discover the beautiful nature-made sandstone sculptures of Arizona. The brilliant green plains & sparkling blue waters of Madagascar will take your breath away. Captions for each these images are located in the back & include photographic information, location, & some of the photographer's thoughts on the composition. If you can only buy one coffee table book, this is definitely the one to get.
Spectacular! December 19, 1998 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I myself have been a serious photographer for over 10 years, collecting books from many different photographers. This book here ranks as the very best book in my library! I cannot praise it enough.
