To witness the Arctic and Antarctica through Paul Nicklen's lens is to experience hope in action. Born to Ice showcases the life's work of an artist whose love for the landscape-and each animal in it-is so palpable that emotion echoes throughout every image. As a collection, the images build in scope and power, leaving you profoundly affected and deepening your sense of commitment to protect these stunning parts of our planet. - Leonardo DiCaprio, June 2018
Selecting his most evocative and thought-provoking imagery, this BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year, top Instagram photography influencer, and speaker takes you deeply into a world he loves. Bathed in polar light, Nicklen's photography breaks new ground, offering a vivid, timely portrait of two extraordinary, endangered ecosystems.
In a wise intertwining of art and science, Nicklen's bold expeditions plunge him into freezing seas to capture it all, from sea to sky, all species and all habitats, including unprecedented, up-close documentation of the lives of leopard seals, whales, walruses, polar bears, elephant seals, penguins, and narwhals.
A captivating and important volume of fine art wildlife photography that illustrates Nicklen's vision of seeking out truth and change through his work-his foundation with Cristina Mittermeier, SeaLegacy, a non-profit environmental organization.
