Während seiner gesamten Karriere stand Peter Lindbergh dem Haus DIOR auf ganz besondere Weise nahe. Er fotografierte die schillernden Musen des Hauses, darunter Marion Cotillard und Charlize Theron, und realisierte mit seinem unverwechselbaren Stil Kampagnen für die Parfums Lady Dior und J'Adore. Dieses letzte Buch des Fotografen ist das Originaldokument einer außergewöhnlichen Ko-Kreation - und eine Herzensangelegenheit des Künstlers. Siebzig Jahre DIOR-Geschichte und das Brodeln des Times Square in New York: Das war das Konzept hinter Lindberghs in Umfang und Dimension außergewöhnlichem Projekt, für das DIOR in einer ebenso ungewöhnlichen Aktion eine beispiellose Anzahl von kostbaren Couture-Kreationen aus den Tresoren in Paris über den Atlantik schiffte. Das Ergebnis ist elektrisierend. Inmitten des Trubels am Times Square glänzt Alek Wek im makellosen Bar-Kostüm von 1947, jenem berühmten Ensemble, das den frühen Stil des Hauses definierte. Klassische "Lindbergh-Schönheiten" wie Saskia de Brauw, Karen Elson und Amber Valletta bewegen sich durch Menschenmassen und unter Gerüsten hindurch, spiegeln sich in Gebäudefassaden - gekleidet in Haute Couture, die Christian Dior noch von Hand fertigte, bis hin zu neueren Entwürfen von Maria Grazia Chiuri. Ein Spiel der Kontraste, das den Ambitionen dieser Stilübung jederzeit gerecht wird: Peter Lindberghs typisch monochrome, aber auch farbige Fotos heben auf meisterhafte Weise die Silhouetten, Feinheiten und Texturen jedes Kleidungsstücks hervor. Lindbergh selbst ist in dieser Publikation in jeder Hinsicht präsent. Dieser Band enthält 165 bislang unveröffentlichte Bilder, dazu eine Einführung von Martin Harrison, und würdigt Lindberghs langjährige Verbundenheit mit dem Pariser Modehaus DIOR. Dafür stellte er mehr als 100 Fotografien zusammen, von Haute Couture bis zu Herren- und Damenkonfektionen, die ursprünglich in renommierten Zeitschriften wie Vogue oder Harper's Bazaar veröffentlicht wurden. Für die Gestaltung war Lindberghs langjähriger Artdirector und enger Freund Juan Gatti verantwortlich. Eine atemberaubende Hommage an das zeitlose Zusammenwirken von Haute Couture und Fotografie.

Die Pflanzenbilder des deutschen Fotopioniers Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932) sind von einer solchen Schönheit und Originalität, dass sie das Medium der Fotografie transzendieren. Über 30 Jahre lang nahm Blossfeldt Tausende von Fotos auf, in einer rigorosen Formensprache, die die Bildproduktion des 19. Jahrhunderts ins 20. Jahrhundert überführte und der eigentlich zweidimensionalen Kunstform eine geradezu skulpturale Qualität verlieh. Die ebenso raffiniert wie minimalistisch vor einfachen Papphintergründen inszenierten Bilder erhalten ihre Plastizität durch Blossfeldts virtuose Lichtregie. Sie geben alles von sich, nichts jedoch von dem Mann hinter der Kamera preis. Diese Stillleben, die ihre Objekte so endgültig in Form bannen, sind ein Meilenstein der Fotografiegeschichte und üben aufgrund ihrer Ästhetik noch immer eine anhaltende Faszination auf alle Kenner des Mediums aus.

William James Hall (1877-1951) var en av sin tids store fotografer i Australia. I tillegg til sin lidenskap for naturfotografering, der han vant store priser, var han den viktigste skildreren av yacht- og båtlivet i Sydney. Fotostudioet hans var et av knutepunktene i det lokale båtmiljøet. Han dokumenterte ikke bare sporten og båtene, men også sosiale endringer som f.eks. åpningen av sporten for kvinner. Hall var en god observatør som kunne realisere visjonene sine med en unik letthet og dynamikk, og skapte unike kronikker i en tid da fotografier fortsatt var unntaket fra regelen. Med fremveksten av flere bærbare kameraer og utviklingen av raskere lukkesystemer rundt århundreskiftet kunne fotografer ta øyeblikksbilder av sportsbegivenheter som for første gang fanget idrettens dynamikk og intensitet. Bildene hans dokumenterer også utviklingen fra glassplatefotografering til rullfilm. William Halls samling, som i dag befinner seg på Australian National Maritime Museum, er en uvurderlig visualisering av seilsporten og datidens maritime historie. Boken inneholder 194 utvalgte fotografier fra hans berømte samling, til sammen rundt 500 bilder.

The lives and habitats of two majestic bird species are shared through striking space, aerial, and surface photographs to artfully convey the fragile elegance of life on Earth.New perspectives can inspire us to think differently about our place in the universe. The first photos of Earth from space showed the home of all known life as a small “blue marble” in a vast darkness and are thought by many to have inspired the environmental movement. For Dr. Roberta L. Bondar, the first female Canadian astronaut and the world’s first neurologist in space, the rare perspective she enjoyed aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery enhanced her reverence for the world we share with non-human life— especially birds, the only animals also able to fly vast distances across the globe.In Space for Birds: Patterns and Parallels of Beauty and Flight, Bondar, also an accomplished professional nature and landscape photographer, focuses her lens on two international species: the endangered Whooping Crane, which migrates from its boreal nesting grounds in Canada’s Wood Buffalo National Park to the seaside abundance of its winter habitat in Texas; and the near-threatened Lesser Flamingo, which is seen in dazzling pink flocks on and above East African Rift Valley soda lakes. Photos from the International Space Station convey the continental scale of these birds’ travels, and Bondar’s aerial and surface photos, accompanied by insights both scientific and personal, offer intimate glimpses of their daily lives and unique behaviours. While these birds lead different lives on opposite sides of the globe, they share, with each other and with us, an imperative to survive and a reliance on Earth’s fragile ecosystems.This book complements a travelling photographic exhibit, Patterns & Parallels: The Great Imperative to Survive.

Here it is at last: The long-awaited much-ANTicipated sequel and companion book to "Histrees - Boabgraphies." This time, Jill has branched out from the boabs to become obsessed with anthills and their inhabitANTS, especially the amazing termite structures built in northern Australia. She has been pretending to be a Myr-mecologist, which is a person who studies ants, not murmuring. Even the most amanteur of antomologists will be offended that I have included termites, otherwise known as white ants, under the heading of ants. That is because these creatures are not actually any kind of ant, but their anciant group of insects is most closely related to cockroaches. (Do I hear a united "Yuuuukk?") But let's face it, it is more difficult to make puns with the word 'termite.'

Now available in paperback, this compelling book is full of behavioural insights and wolf tales that will engage those interested in the state of wild wolves throughout North America.In the winter of 2008¿09, a new wolf family from the Pipestone Valley suddenly appeared in the Bow Valley of Banff National Park, taking up residence alongside a family that had ruled there for over a decade. Within a year, these new wolves had eliminated the Bow Valley wolves and established a dominance that would last for five years in the heart of Canadäs most famous national park.The book chronicles not only the rise of the Pipestones and how they established and maintained dominance in the valley, but also how an increase in mass tourism in Banff led to a decrease in prey density for the Pipestones, which in turn led to the wolves changing their hunting strategies and expanding their summer range. Bloch explains how the Pipestones faced an inevitable fall from the top as pressure from eager wolf watchers increased exponentially in the park at the same time the wolves¿ prey base was shrinking rapidly. Combining these influences with other factors like rail mortality and old age, Bloch and Marriott knew the end was near for the Pipestones.The authors conclude with insights into how wolf and wildlife management in Banff National Park can improve. They outline steps Parks Canada should be taking to deal with the human management problems that are really at the core of the wildlife issues in the park. They also discuss whether we can continue to maintain a balance between ecological integrity and mass tourism in Canadäs flagship park and whether it is already too late. Have we passed the point of no return? And will our Banff wolves live forever after in a wildlife ghetto devoid of true wilderness characteristics?
