SynopsisNick Brandt depicts the animals of East Africa with an intimacy and artistry unmatched by other photographers who choose wildlife as their subject. He creates these majestic sepia and blue-tone photoscontrasting moments of quintessential stillness with bursts of dramatic actionby engaging with these creatures on an exceptionally intimate level, without the customary use of a telephoto lens. Evocative of classical art, from dignified portraits to sweeping natural tableaux, Brandt's images artfully and simply capture animals in their natural states of being. With a foreword by Alice Sebold and an introduction by Jane Goodall, On This Earth is a gorgeous portfolio of some of the last wild animalsand a heartfelt elegy to a vanishing world.

Incredible photographs!
Photographer Nick Brandt has positioned himself and his camera to get the MOST unusual close-up pictures of African animals! All are printed in black and white, which makes them even more striking. I saw the original exhibition at a museum in Stockholm, Sweden, where the large prints were magnificent, but the book is almost as good as being there.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

"Fantastic book that details the plight of animals in Africa"
This book is the first in a series by Nick Brandt that details, through Brandt's unique vision, how magnificent the animals of Africa are and how we need to protect them. Poachers are ravaging the big game animals of Africa and Nick Brandt is helping to raise money and bring a spotlight on the Elephants, Rhinos, Lions and other of the beautiful animals of Africa!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
