"Top-notch photographers circle the globe in search of things beautiful and wondrous. The result is an uplifting, unifying 'vision' of our world."
--USA Today

"The catholic range of the photographs that still drive [National Geographic magazine’s] popularity is reflected in the new collection Visions of Earth."
--Wall Street Journal

"Incredible images include macro shots of strange American species, haunting landscapes featuring fisherman and swimming baitfish, and British ladies donning bold one-pieces."
--Huffington Post

“…extraordinary in the way [the images] entice and intrigue, inviting viewers to revel not only in the beauty of scenes, people, and objects, but also in playful, imaginative, and surprising points of view.” –Book News, Inc.
 
“It's a compendium of jaw-dropping images — landscapes, animals, interesting people, with the accent on the unusual — captured by the magazine's sterling staff of shooters.” Mysanantonio.com
