For
more than ten years, photographer Steve Bloom travelled all
over the world, roaming
through the jungles of Borneo, the African savannahs, and the
frozen banks of Antarctica
to assemble this dazzling collection of photographs of animals
in their environments. With
an international range that is rare in books of animal photography,
the 200 photographs
in Untamed bring to life a vast panorama of animal diversity,
and of the landscapes,
climates, and habitats in which they live.
Here we see the serene gaze of a gorilla relaxing in the rainforest,
a shark jumping in
midair to catch its prey, a Siberian tiger traipsing through
the snow, and penguins congre-
gating on an ice floe. Bloom’s anthropomorphic approach
reveals rage, tenderness, and
even humor in his subjects, capturing those fleeting moments
when the gap between
animal and human seems to disappear altogether. These amazing
images, augmented by
a personal account of Bloom’s unforgettable career as
a wildlife photographer, make
Untamed an essential volume for all animal and photography lovers. |
