Overview
Eye to Eye, the first personal portfolio by master photographer Frans Lanting, presents an extraordinary collection of animal images by an award-winning photographer and naturalist who "has set the standards for a whole generation of wildlife photographers," according to the BBC. More than 140 photographs, made over a period of twenty years, reveal the unique personal aesthetic Frans Lanting brings to wildlife photography, as well as the startling new perspective on animals his images provoke.This book's exquisite images are accompanied by personal stories and observations from a lifetime of working with wild animals around the world, ranging form orangutans in the rain forests of Borneo to emperor penguins in Antarctica.
Frans Lanting's work has been lauded by designers as art, by biologists as science, and by others as a new vision about the relationship between animals and people---one that challenges us to look animals in the eye and see ourselves.
