Book Description
He has been called "the phantom of photography", but he sees himself as a "nonviolent anarchist" with a Leica, film and geometric vision. Henri Cartier-Bresson, the most acclaimed candid photographer in the world, is revered as a demigod by legions of miniature-camera enthusiasts, who have almost never seen a picture of him. After half a century of shooting everybody, everywhere, he has remained the photographer without a face until now. In May 2000, while on assignment chronicling camera old-timers, Cartier-Bresson decided to shoot his subject, friend and colleague David Douglas Duncan at the Picasso museum in Paris. Upon arriving at the shoot, Duncan seized a rare opportunity. He borrowed his wife’s zoom-lens camera and asked Cartier-Bresson for a roll of film. Then, without a word between them, Duncan began to photograph Cartier-Bresson. Duncan fully realized the outstanding nature of these images and decided to turn them into a tribute to a master of photography. This book captures the true essence of portraiture and is sure to become a classic of its genre - a one-of-a-kind portrait of a photographer and a lesson of spontaneity in portrait photography.

Book Description
The blind photographer cannot see a butterfly perched perfectly still on a flower, a bowl of sweet-smelling fruit, or a child's rattle on a darkened floor, but the mind's eye is sharply focused. How then, do blind or partially sighted people capture such extraordinary images? The photographs in this revelatory book suggest a deeper truth: that blindness is itself a kind of seeing, and that those who can see are often blind to the strangeness and beauty of the world around them. As the blind photographer Evgen Bavcar writes, "Photography must belong to the blind, who in their daily existence have learned to become the masters of camera obscura." Through the photographs of more than fifty blind or partially sighted people from around the world, this exhilarating book—the first to explore this phenomenon in all its vibrancy and diversity—will make you see differently.

Book Description
This book of photography represents National Geographic's Photo Ark, a major cross-platform initiative and lifelong project by photographer Joel Sartore to make portraits of the world's animals -- especially those that are endangered. His message: to know these animals is to save them. Sartore intends to photograph every animal in captivity in the world. He is circling the globe, visiting zoos and wildlife rescue centers to create studio portraits of 12,000 species, with an emphasis on those facing extinction. He has photographed more than 6,000 already and now, thanks to a multi-year partnership with National Geographic, he may reach his goal. This book showcases his animal portraits: from tiny to mammoth, from the Florida grasshopper sparrow to the greater one-horned rhinoceros. Paired with the prose of veteran wildlife writer Douglas Chadwick, this book presents an argument for saving all the species of our planet.
