Description

A photographic invitation to make a journey through Nature. We shall dedicate ourselves to the exploration of what humanity has seen fit to safeguard in these protected areas. We shall be surprised to see our planet's most precious jewels administered with expertise and with love; we can plunge into this dreamlike reality if we leave our eyes and our hearts opened before the splendid images offered by this volume. So let us pause a while and enjoy the incredible images of this volume, a real journey through Nature. A journey of times gone by, when travelers took their time to explore, investigate or simply be entranced by the spectacle of a magnificent mountain, or the sunlight filtering through the forest, the tenderness of a mother towards her cubs, the momentous power of the waves. Let us relish the joy of knowing that these places are special twice over: for Nature has made them unique and human wisdom has made them national parks. 596 colour photographs… (more)
