Silent Kingdom reveals the world beneath the waves in an ethereal collection of black-and-white underwater photography.

 

Through stunning black-and-white images, award-winning photographer Christian Vizl uses a masterful control of light and shadow to portray the creatures of the sea as they are rarely seen, at home in the ethereal world beneath the waves.

 

From capturing the ferocity of sharks to the playful dance of dolphins, Vizl turns aquatic creatures and marine seascapes into visions of sublime grace and beauty suspended in time and space. With each turn of the page, venture deeper into the one realm in which humans do not reign and discover an unforgettable world that few have ever seen.

Foreword by Jean-Michel Cousteau, Introduction by Peter Skinner   "Since my career began, in 1956, I've continuously searched for subjects that aesthetically bespoke man's presence underwater." So reflected Ernest H. Brooks II when asked to explain his affinity for creating stunning imagery from the primordial marine environments that so intricately connect us to our evolutionary ancestry...   In this volume, the master photographer, often referred to as the Ansel Adams of underwater photography, brings together those images that most powerfully speak to the enduring spirit of life underwater. Many of these photographs today are in the permanent collections of major museums in America and abroad.   Accompanied by his own recollections from lifetime of adventure and exploration, these magnificent silver photographs embody one man's lifetime pursuit of his art and the discovery of the true purpose of his journey - to provide the inspiration for the preservation and protection of our marine environment. Thus begins a navigation for us all, throughout the ways of the Silver Seas.   _______________________________________________________ NOTE: - This book is available for pickup at our office. - Select "Pickup at Asian Geographic Magazines office" as your shipping method to avoid shipping costs.

Face to Face - Up Close with Mother Nature is a collection of wildlife author and photographer Al Hornsby's most exciting underwater and topside wildlife encounters, as captured through his camera and words. Organized into The Americas; Africa; and Asia and the Pacific sections, the color and B&W images, most shot at very close range, feature sharks, whales, crocodiles, grizzly bears, leopards, cobras and many more of nature's most lovely and exciting creatures. Key photographs are accompanied by Al's first-person impressions of the encounters that led to the images, which share his feelings and emotions during those oft-times intense, face-to-face moments.

According to the author, "For the big animals - big carnivores in particular - it's my hope the book's images and real-life stories can show that their fearsome reputations as 'blood-thirsty man eaters' are the products of myth and too little real information; that they are instead majestic and beautiful, usually too timid or wary to be approached at all, and even if they show interest in us, it's generally merely simple curiosity. This aside, they play critical roles in virtually all our planet's ecosystems, and they need to be protected. Hopefully, Face to Face can do its small part in communicating just what is at stake should we ultimately fail to adequately respond."
