For more than two decades, wildlife photographer Tom Schandy has been crisscrossing the African landscape, recording its incomparable beauty and capturing unguarded moments in the lives of its animals. "Magnificent Africa," a collection of his finest work, takes us into the jungles, deserts, wetlands, and savannahs of this fascinating continent. We see lions mating, antelopes grazing, and elephants bathing in photos that give us an unparalleled sense of "being there." We also view, close up, some of Africa's most beautiful plants and trees. Tom Schandy, one of Norway's foremost photographers, has received numerous awards for his work, including honors in the world's most prestigious competition: BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award.
