Through the words and unbelievably beautiful images one gets an intense summary course in the field of photography.Outstanding!" --Apogee Photo Magazine"'Stunning' is an overused word, but it's the only way to describe these photos." --Twin Cities Pioneer Press"An inspirining collection.There's an unusual diversity in style, theme and subject between the covers of this book. That diversity inspires us to stop running around and look around a minute." --Mike Pisani, Photo Co

It is already the best seller in photojournalism! The photographs included in the latest National Geographic Book (Stunning Photographs) edited by Annie Griffiths are truly stunning! I can give 10 gold stars to the entire book as well as to each one of the fine images. The book has been out exactly a month today and already it has become the best seller in photojournalism. What a great achievement by National Geographic! This book would make a perfect gift for this Christmas! People of all ages can really enjoy reading the book for sure!. Colorful, High Res Photos 200+ pages of high quality photographs. I wanted a "coffee table book" with something light and interesting guests could just pick up and leaf through, this was even better than I imagined. I find it neat to look through myself.. Perfect Stunning is a perfect adjective for the photographs in this book. I love that they not only include the photographs but quotes along with them. Beautiful book altogether I can sit for an hour just savoring it. Highly recommend. I also purchased "Rarely Seen" but those photos are, as stated, thing that are rarely seen and just really cool but this one is more jaw-dropping awe-inspiring.
