National Geographic - Through the Lens (2003)

Through the Lens takes some of the most riveting adventure photographs of the last decade and tells the story behind the images. From BASE jumping the highest waterfall on Earth, to trekking across Arabia by camel; from frigid Himalayan climbs to fiery volcanic descents, ten featured National Geographic photographs will take viewers around the globe and plunge them into a thrill-seeking, heart-stopping world of action and edge-of-your-seat exploits.

A "nice to have in your archive"

It's a nice dvd explaining very (may be too) briefly how some of the very memorable photos of National Geography photographers are prepared and shot. Also, it's possible to catch a glimpse of what type of gadgets are used by professional photographers. Previously, I watched "National Geographic's Photographers" and I think the level of detail and the length of each section was more appropriate. Also, it gave more insight on the difficulties and pleasures of shooting photos for National Geography. This one is quite short.

But still, I am happy to purchase and watch this DVD. Being a serious amateur photographer, I believe I made the right decision to include it in my archive. January 1, 2008

Great Adventure Photography

This is a very good DVD right in line with The Photographers DVD. If you enjoy photography this is a nice DVD in that it covers some of how the images where captured. but also nice for anyone. The spots are a bit short. Quality video as always from National Geographic. May 20, 2005
