Emperor

This stunning wildlife book celebrates emperor penguins, offering a portrait of these charismatic birds in their natural Antarctic habitat. Photographs by an award-winning wildlife photographer capture moments from majestic returns to the sea to tender scenes of chicks clustering for warmth, while narrating the challenges of capturing the perfect shot in one of Earth’s most extreme environments. The volume highlights the penguins’ resilience under temperatures as low as -50°C and winds up to 150 km/h, presenting a vivid view of life on the ice.

Over the course of nine years, the photographer travelled to remote Antarctic colonies to document these birds, sharing behind-the-scenes experiences that reveal the patience, endurance, and preparation required to photograph in such conditions.
