A newly published book gives a compelling glimpse into the vibrant and fascinating life of birds.
‘The Handbook of Bird Photography’ provides an intimate insight into the secret world of bird behaviour and the colourful lives of these creatures. The sumptuous book brings together the knowledge, talent, and experience of three well-known professional wildlife photographers – Markus Varesvuo, Jari Peltomaki and Bence Mate – into one beautifully illustrated volume.
