Summary: The Best wildlife photography book
Comment: I have bought & borrowed many wildlife books and out of all of them this is the best one I have ever seen. The photography is excellent, and the colors are so vibrant they make you fell as if you are watching the animals live.

All kinds of different animals are featured in this fascinating book. A turtle is shown with a mosquito on its nose and a baby dear is pictured while it sleeps. A squirrel eats a dandelion stem & mice gather around an ear of corn.

Other images show egrets fighting in mid air & butterflies resting on a flower. You will even find adorable baby bears caught climbing a tree. There also is a gorgeous field of sunflowers & a single elegant water lily floating in a pond.

You get a glimpse at the northern lights & snowcapped mountains against a brilliant blue sky as well. The index in the back is a great bonus; it lists each plate, the location it was taken at & the photographic settings that were used.

Summary: Super Book !
Comment: This book is a great example of how tame and captive animals can be photographed and passed off as wild. The color reproduction of this book is unmatchable, as is the sharpness of the pictures. Although it may be difficult to identify the computer manipulated from those which have not been tampered with, the everyday nature enthusiast will find this book a good add for the coffee table. Good luck finding these animals in the wild!

Summary: A visit with these indredible photographers!
Comment: I had the opportunity to participate in an interview with Carl Sams and Jean Stoick at their home studios here in Michigan. We (Michigan Magazine Television) were amazed at the time and dedication that went into producing such a fine publication as Images of The Wild. The startling impact this collection has in photographic detail and wonderful stories along many of the photos makes it MUCH more than a mere "coffee table" release. The time and engergy this photographic team take in becoming part of the enviroment of each of thier subjects, to gain the animal's trust, before taking the opportunities to capture their image is a story in it's self. Their dedication and patient persistance along with an undeniable kinship with "Lady Luck" makes for pure "eye" candy.
