If you like elephants!!!! January 9, 2007
Gorgeous, beautiful photography. It catches the essence of these magnificent creatures. We lived in East Africa for many years and went on safari as often as possible. This book is a "keeper" to pass on to our children and grandchildren.

Bought this book for my 12 year old daughter who just LOVES elephants. When she pulls out the book to review the amazing photos, my son and I also join her - the photography is captivating and amazing and can be enjoyed by anyone who loves elephants &/or photography.
Great Job Steve Bloom!!

Saw his work this summer on the streets of Copenhagen and having been on more than a dozen safariis was blown away by his patience and eye for just the right photo. Images are unexpected and gorgeous. He really captures these animals in a unique way that I have never seen before. Editorial is pedantic and weak.

South African photographer Steve Bloom says that he first began his interest in elephants as a child. He has apparently never slacked in his interest. Down through the years he has photographed elephants in Africa and in India. Now he brings this collection of pictures of individuals, of herds, pictures taken while sharing a pond with an elephant, or from an airplane circling above. Here are pictures of herds of females and family groups, pictures of single bulls. Perhaps the most outstanding photographs are those of elephants swimming. Elephants swim almost completely underwater with, once in a while he lifts his trunk like a snorkle on a World War II submarine.
Beyond the beautiful there is also happiness, joy, clumbsy youngsters, solitary walks through the forest -- fantastic photos.
