Welcome to Litsy!

I spent part of yesterday perusing this big photography book. Most of it is great, obviously it focuses on animal eyes, with lots of close ups. There were quite a few very blurry photos that may have been included to impress on the reader how difficult animals are as models, but I think they could have been left out. Favorite shot: a bonobo who seems to be doing yoga 😁.

This is such a cool book. It‘s HUGE and it combines my new(ish) found love of Nature Poetry and my long time love of Nature Photography. When I bought this, I had no idea I‘d used the book to get suggestions last spring.

No idea what these are but they sure are cute.

Look at that adorably smug looking bird!

The hubby and I are watching the PBS shows on The Photo Ark project this morning. There is also a companion book (pictured). This guy has spent years photographing the world's rarest animals before they disappear. He goes to great lengths to shoot them in front of a white or black background so he can eliminate distractions and really show off the beauty of the animals. Highly recommended based on the TV shows! 🐯🐼🐦🐊🐙🐌🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

So having referenced this book a couple times for my own photography, I decided to borrow it from the library.
