Natural History Museum Bücher

Dieser Band zeigt die bemerkenswertesten und faszinierendsten Fotografien tierischer Verhaltensweisen, die in den letzten Jahrzehnten mit dem »Wildlife Photographer of the Year«-Award prämiert wurden, der wichtigsten Auszeichnung im Bereich Tierfotografie. Jede dieser Momentaufnahmen hält einen einzigartigen oder überraschenden Aspekt tierischen Verhaltens fest. Viele dieser Verhaltensweisen wurden so erstmals dokumentiert; manche sind so überraschend, unerwartet oder aber menschenähnlich, dass sie uns zutiefst berühren. Für solche Aufnahmen braucht es Glück, aber genauso fotografisches Können und Gespür sowie eine Nähe zu den Tieren, die man nur erreicht, wenn man lange Zeit mit ihnen und vor Ort verbringt. Die Bilder stammen von über 50 preisgekrönten Fotografen aus mehr als 20 Ländern. Die außergewöhnlichen Naturfotografien werden ergänzt durch kurze Texte, die das gezeigte Verhalten unterhaltsam und informativ beschreiben.
