Since the dawn of time, no other creatures have stirred as much emotion as serpents and dragons. Evoking fear and respect, hatred and reverence, they dominate the mythology of virtually every major civilization.

Whatever your feelings about these fascinating creatures, you will find this book intriguing. It presents such intimate portraits of these animals that your perceptions of them are sure to change.

Photographing both in the studio and the field, Michael has been recognized worldwide for his ability to capture the beauty and personality of his natural subjects. Michael calls his photographic enterprise, The Gardens of Eden, an ironic twist to the negativity associated with the infamous snake in the biblical story of Adam and Eve. To Michael, the world is full of potential Gardens of Eden, places where people and nature live in balance

The soft cover volume is available for US$40s.
