Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Following his stunning photo-safari in Africa and an unprecedented helicopter voyage from Europe to Africa in Eyes over Africa, the award-winning photographer has ventured to the polar regions. With his inimitable blend of intimate close-ups and cinematic landscapes, Poliza leads us through the magical worlds of these frozen paradises most threatened by global warming. Poliza shows polar bears as they frolicked among purple fireweed against the majestic Arctic backdrop, varied and multicolored icebergs, as well as a number of rare and endangered species. Poliza once again captures the most vulnerable treasures--still ensconced in our planet's few pristine landscapes. Text in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian SELLING POINTS An epic journey across Earth's majestic frozen landscapes A must-have for all nature lovers and fine art aficionados ILLUSTRATIONS 180 colour photographs
