THE most highly respected nature photography competition in the world, the never disappoints, and neither does this book, which showcases the winning images from 30,000 entries across the various categories.

From a butterfly sipping salt to a blue cod strolling on its fins, and from a grizzly bear hunting for salmon to a sailfish herding sardines, you will want to linger on every page. It鈥檚 a celebration of how beautiful life on Earth can be, but also a warning of its fragility.
