Photographier la nature dans tous ses milieux

Les libellules

Gilles Martin has spent 20 years splashing through ponds, marshes, and rivers to get close to, observe, and photograph the most stunning of insects in its natural environment: the dragonfly. His photographs form a real technical challenge and show all the features of these fascinating insects, of which the ancestors were up to… 70 centimeters long!Did you know that relative to their anatomy, these “marvels of the earth” have the most highly-developed eyeballs in creation?

Australie continent sauvage

A full tour of Australia resembles a mini world tour, given the varied palette of landscapes. The central bush closely resembles the African savanna, Tasmania looks like green and rainy Scotland, Cape York’s impenetrable vegetation resembles the Amazonian forest, etc., and the Great Barrier Reef contains a string of islands that are as paradisiacal as the Seychelles.

Here is a book that reads like a journey. It is an Alice in Wonderland, filled with representatives of the world’s some 10,000 wonders. It explores all habitats, from high mountains to vast oceans, from the polar ice caps to the dense equatorial jungle. It is a voyage to the heart of the world of the birds that along the way acquaints us with some charismatic characters- some with beauty, others with intriguing behavior, and still others with astonishing abilities.

Les papillons du monde

What would summer be like without the scent of flowers and the fluttering of butterflies? Ephemeral and graceful, they are unquestionably the best known of insects-as well as the most coveted, admired, sought after, hated, studied, and bitterly fought. One insect in every ten is a butterfly or moth. The world of the Lepidoptera, infinite in its diversity and richness, is a microcosm when viewed from a distance, and is a whole universe for those involved with it.

The scientific community is unanimous: several species of primates are at risk of becoming extinct in their natural habitats in the next 10 to 15 years. The orangutan, the bonobo, the chimpanzee, and the gorilla are amongst those species threatened with extinction in the short term if exceptional protection measures are not put in place as a matter of utmost urgency.
