Kurzbeschreibung
Oceanic Wilderness is an exploration of the incredible delights to be found in the world's oceans. Visiting geographic extremities from the Caribbean to the East Pacific, Japan to the South and West Pacific, temperate and tropical Australia through to Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean, this book is a vibrantly illustrated feast of fish, coral and the wealth of exotic animal and plant life to be found in the depths - some of it shown with the aid of a microscopic lens. The breathtaking beauty of form, colour and motion of marine life is profusely illustrated in this outstanding book of over 500 colour images. From aerial views to the depths of huge reefs; from mid-ocean drifting to tropical lagoons; Oceanic Wilderness is a fascinating photographic journey and includes examples taken during the day and the night. This book breaks new ground, as a number of subjects that have never been recorded before are featured here for the first time.

Beautiful wilderness awash with color and diversity
3. November 2007
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I ended up purchasing this book because my mother had borrowed it from the local library - both she and I decided we each had to have a copy because it was so fantastic.
The book is a photographic collection of spectacular glimspes of ocean life that is a treat for the eyes. I could spend hours (and think I already have) gazing at these photos of strange and wonderous creatures. The book has minimal text, mostly limited to a caption of a sentence or two for each photo, so it is really about the pictures. And they are gorgeous. Most pages are either single full-page photos or collages of pictures themed together. The color is just amazing. Contained within the pages are not just unusual fish, but dazzling shrimp, anemones, coral, nudebranches, pygmy seahorses and plenty of other colorful creatures. I love books like this and this one is one of the best I've seen.
The book is large (and heavy!) with pages made from heavy stock paper, so it is of good quality. Definitely a candidate for the coffee table so that is within reach of guests who want to "ooh" and "ahh" over some spectacular photography. Oh, and the inside cover has a photo of coral and if you run your fingers over the page, you will feel the texture of it. Very well done book! Highly recommended!

Amazing Oceanic Wilderness
23. August 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Roger Steene's "Oceanic Wilderness" is a fantastic book because the photos are of such high quality. There are amazing photos of many kinds of shrimps, crabs, worms and other invertebrates. I liked it because is was NOT full of endles photos taken while the diver was lying on the bottom looking up at the surface and the passing schools of fish. There are a limited number of such photos that one can look at without becoming bored.
If you've never bought a coral reef book for your library, then you must buy this one - forget the rest this is the best!
