Stunning look at the majesty of Africa Sep 23, 2009
By Matthew Shanaberger
"Matt Shanaberger"
A Shadow Falls must be considered one of the most important works in Wildlife Art. Each photograph reads beautifully, and the scenery provides much more than a backdrop, it propels the viewer into the scene. The treatments applied to each image enhance the mood of the shot beautifully and show that the artist felt the scene as he captured it. Many scenes are so powerful as to truly humble the viewer. The scale of the book, its layout, and the procession of imagery is perfect. My only comment is that it would be nice for an artist's proof version to be released in the highest possible quality, as this would take the book to a neww level
I thoroughly enjoyed A Shadow Falls and would recommend the book for yourself, or as a gift to a family member or friend. It will be appreciated forever.

Unsurpassed photography. An intimate encounter. Oct 17, 2009
By David Morrison I am not the most eloquent of people, but Nick Brandt's work tends to make me wax more lyrical than anything else does. My wife bought me his first book a few years ago, and I literally had tears in my eyes looking through the pages. I thought that Nick would be unable to top that book, but I was wrong.
A Shadow Falls is a masterpiece of photography, and brings those who look at these images closer to the soul of the animals than any Nat Geo show ever could. Each image feels like an intimate encounter, like it's just you, and the animal, alone in the wild. You can almost sense that they know you are looking at them. They are allowing you to be so close. It's personal.
Nick does not use zoom lenses, or telephotos, so all the images bring you right up where he was. The startling detail of the king of the beasts, the lion, or the majestic herds of elephants making their treks in search of water, portrayed in a manner that tells a story. They're not just photos, they're so much more.
As a musician (and part time photographer), I always ask people what 5 albums would they want to have on their iPod if they were stranded on a desert island. By the same token, I know what book I would want by my side should I ever find myself in that predicament.
A Shadow Falls.

Majestic photography of African wildlife. Sep 20, 2009
By A. G. Kromhout Another book of Nick Brandt. About 20% bigger than his book 'On this earth', and Brandt's photo's deserve that. Almost unbelievable, astonishing photo's, portraits of African wildlife. Perfectly printed. If you love black and white photo's, or if you love African wildlife, or if you love portrait photography, this book is a must-have. Really.

Buy this book! Jan 04, 2010
By Judy Coleman These are the best photographs of animals in the wild in Africa that I have ever seen.They are poetic evocations of the spirit and beauty of some of the last vestiges of wildlife in the world. If you are longing to go on safari but can't find a way, this book will transport you. If you have gone on safari and want a reminder of the wonders that you have seen this is the book for you,

Stunning images, a little repetition Mar 17, 2010
By Kyla C. Beautiful, stunning images, saw this in person and had to get a copy. My only complaint, and it's a minor one, is that by the end you find some of the images start to become a little repetitive. Still very worth the purchase, highly recommended.
