5.0 out of 5 starsThe gift book for all photographers.
By RobH2ohues on November 30, 2009
Format: Hardcover
I spent the weekend reviewing the images in this book. What a treat it was. It's not just another collection of the same images we have come to see again and again.
The book delves deep into to the archives of the National Geographic society to find images that represent all aspects of their collection. What a great variety of images, photographers and styles, all held together and presented in this beautiful book.
It's hard to say what I liked best, there is just so much to choose from, Old B&W, autochrome plates and both 35 mm and digital photography. Such beautiful Images -and not the ones that are published over and over. they took me into what it must be like to work there, behind the scenes.

If you know anyone who loves photography this is the gift to buy them this holiday season

5.0 out of 5 starsSimply Beautiful
By Mambs on December 3, 2009
Format: Hardcover
This book contains such a broad range of photographs from all over the world. Each page is a reminder of the incredible richness of the human and natural world. I do not know much about photography, but it's amazing to see how both the quality and the style of photographs has evolved over the past century. This is a truly enduring book that I will enjoy for years to come.

4.0 out of 5 starsNational Geographic Images
By C. Gregory Fehle on January 24, 2010
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Some of the most exceptional National Geographic photos are found in this book. But the quality of paper used to reproduce this book disappointed me. I would be willing to pay more for a better quality paper to highlight these photographic masterpieces.

5.0 out of 5 starsI look at it every day
By Janet M on March 9, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
This book is small enough to keep on my dining room table. I flip thru the pages every day - and each time I see a picture differently than before. As an amateur photographer it helps me understand lighting and camera angles. And buying it used makes it budget friendly.

5.0 out of 5 starsWonderful Gift Idea!
By Robin W. on December 7, 2009
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book as a Christmas gift for a colleague and couldn't be more delighted. In fact, I enjoyed browsing its pages before I wrapped it so much, I'm going to order a copy for my own bookshelves. It's definitely a keeper!

2.0 out of 5 starsPOOR QUALITY but RAVE REVIEWS? DISAPPOINTED
By The Purple Bee on February 15, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I was encouraged to purchased this book because of the rave reviews. I'm beginning to question if these reviews are real ?

The book is printed in China on cheap paper and the images in many photos are blurred.
I'm extremely disappointed in this book and will return it tomorrow.
The price is inexpensive and it shows that you get what you pay for.

4.0 out of 5 starsPhotography At It's Best
By Sharon M. Bressen VINE VOICE on November 20, 2013
Format: Hardcover
National Geographic Image Collection

I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing the 450 photographs in this outstanding book. Some I have seen before but others were new. It must have been very difficult to cull from the eleven million images in the National Geographic's Image Collection. The fact that the Collection is so large speaks well of the dedication of the Geographic’s group to preserve these treasures.

I especially liked how the book’s categories was divided into four sections; The Early Photographs, Color & Optimism, Documentary Realism, and The Digital Range. You could follow the progression of the art form very easily.

One of the reasons, I have always had an interest in photography can be traced to my childhood memories of reading The National Geographic magazine.

While it is interesting that the book was printed in Italy; the questions arises “Why can we not print books like this in USA?

This book should be purchased for all our libraries in the country.

4.0 out of 5 starsBeautiful pictures
By Manda on January 31, 2010
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Bought this book as a gift for a friend. I was able to flip through it briefly before giving it away, and the images were spectacular. My friend has commented to me many times that he really enjoys his new book, and flips through it quite a bit to read interesting things. It is a very large book, and seems perfect to be a very nice "coffee table" book after you are done reading it cover to cover.
