Reviews
" Greg Lasley's Texas Wildlife Portraits is a book that everyone who loves Texas and its wonderful wildlife should have. It contains the finest photographs of Texas wildlife that I have ever seen."--Victor Emanuel, President, Victor Emanuel Nature Tours, "To start at the end; it is an absolutely marvelous book! Mr. Lasley's three concurrent themes, his narrative, his photographs and his captions are seamlessly interconnected. They are captivating as well as educational. His writing is as good as his photography. In reading the book, I realized it is a "must" for anyone considering wildlife photography as a hobby whether or not they are from Texas. Mr. Lasley teaches the reader that having a beautiful picture is only half the enjoyment. The other half is to research and learn about the subject. In summary, one of the best books I have had the great pleasure of reading."--Bill Karnofsky, Lake Region Audubon Society, "Greg Lasley's Texas Wildlife Portraits is a book that everyone who loves Texas and its wonderful wildlife should have. It contains the finest photographs of Texas wildlife that I have ever seen."--Victor Emanuel, President, Victor Emanuel Nature Tours, �Greg Lasley�s Texas Wildlife Portraits is a book that everyone who loves Texas and its wonderful wildlife should have. It contains the finest photographs of Texas wildlife that I have ever seen.�--Victor Emanuel, President, Victor Emanuel Nature Tours

Synopsis
Experience the wildlife of Texas, up-close and personal, through the eyes of one of the country's most talented nature photographers. Where else can you look a coyote in the eye while it licks its chops? Spy the long tongue of a Nine-banded Armadillo as it drinks? Watch a rare Blue-faced Ringtail dragonfly eating its prey? Glimpse a Sanderling's feet spread midair as it scurries down the beach? See an American White Pelican's pouch turned inside-out as it yawns? Award-winning photographer Greg Lasley has been taking pictures of wildlife for thirty years, and although he has photographed some of the most exotic creatures and remote places on earth, in Greg Lasley's Texas Wildlife Portraits he gives homage to his favorite place for photography: his home state. With more than a hundred stunning color photographs, this book reflects Lasley's penchant for the state's insect life, especially dragonflies, as well as his long affection for Texas birds. In addition, many hours of patient waiting or the happenstance of a chance encounter have yielded fine images of Texas mammals and reptiles in their habitats. Veteran Texas naturalists John and Gloria Tveten open the text with an introduction to the man behind the camera. From there, photographer's comments and insightful photo captions help vividly re-create the moment each image was shot--what the animal was doing, what the photographer was thinking., With more than a hundred color photographs, this book reflects the author's penchant for the state's insect life, especially dragonflies, as well as his long affection for Texas birds.

    I had a problem after placing my order. I contacted the seller who responded within an hour and resolved the issue with no hassle. This book was a fair price and received today. I failed to notice, but the description did indicate it was missing the dust jacket. I highly recommend this seller.
