Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Art Wolfe's sensitivity to his subject and his craft of photography are once again showcased in this stunning color collection of images for nature and photography lovers. Focusing his camera on the many shapes and forms of the elements — earth, air, fire, and water — Wolfe brings all his famed sense of composition, pattern, and light to expose our natural world's ever-changing beauty: the sensually shaped earth of the red rocky outcrops in America's Southwest; the vertical shifts of silver-slivered earth that form the mountain spine of South America; the mystical, metallic reflection of light on a pool high in the Canadian Rockies; the storming force of a waterfall in Africa. Through his emotive lens readers get a deep appreciation for and education in both the environment and photography. The reader's experience is further impassioned by Craig Child's four essays on the elements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Photos, November 1, 2004
By M. Pence "avid reader" (Kansas City, MO) - See all my reviews
...of the earth and its atmosphere at its finest! How did the photographer know just where to be to get these wonderful photos? My entire family LOVES this book, discovered by my fourteen year old who loves to look at and study clouds. I bought the book for her because she BEGGED me for it! Truly a family favorite for years to come. BUY THIS BOOK! You won't be disappointed!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Mr. Wolfe's usual quality, April 21, 2005
By KR (VA) - See all my reviews
I have other books of his and I adore the photography. I did not think that the pictures were reproduced well in this book. Some are grainy. Not up to his usual quality

3.0 out of 5 stars not reccomended, August 21, 2008
This book seems to present the pictures that didn't make the final cut for "Edge of earth, corner of sky". The layout is strange; imagine two pictures on a page oriented diagonally with their corners touching!
