Frans Lanting, Penguin
Intense, intimate encounters with penguins through Frans Lanting's lens
"This book is a personal interpretation of the penguins I met, rather than a natural history of all penguins," Frans Lanting writes. "I wanted to create an impression of who these penguins are and what they go through. I hope my work will be seen as an homage to the individual within them all."
