Creature

Photographer Andrew Zuckerman's strikingly detailed images of animals from around the world are as delightful as they are inspiring. This collection of astonishing studio portraits of 175 wild creatures - from baby leopards to parrots, bears, mandrills, and many more - are stunningly foregrounded against white backgrounds, depicting their subjects with rare sensitivity, insight, humor, and wonder.
Zuckerman - also an up-and-coming film maker, whose first shot film, 'High Falls', starring Maggie Gyllenhall and Peter Sarsgaard, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2007 - has created a volume perfect for animal lovers, photography fans, and anyone fascinated by the world around us. 'Creature' is a beautiful and thought-provoking look at the fragile wonders of the natural world.
