In her latest book, sometimes controversial celebrity photographer Jill Greenberg has managed to capture various bears in a way that you’ve likely never seen.
Along with various quotes you’ll find incredibly thought-provoking images of all types of bears, ranging from cubs to mammoth sized grizzly bears. Some so expressive in their emotions they appear almost human in nature.
These portraits were taken on-location in a studio like setting with backdrops. Because there are no background disturbances and her great use of lighting you are able to focus on the sheer beauty and raw emotion of the bear itself.
This book is a large 8×10 hard-cover with 104 pages. Near the back it features a small section with each bears name, weight, residence and appearance credits.
This is a great book for any animal or photography lover but most of all because it’s sure to provoke conversation, it would be the perfect coffee table book.
My family has enjoyed this book every time we’ve opened it up. My son especially. There is one bear in particular drinking from a bottle that even he can identify with! For me, being such a lover of photography, this book is a treasure to own and I’d like to thank The Product Review Place along with Hachette Book Group for providing it for review.
