Photograph by Bill Curtsinger

During more than thirty years of shooting for National Geographic, Bill Curtsinger has traveled to underwater locations around the globe to reveal the lives of elusive marine creatures—some never before photographed—in amazing detail. For his new book Extreme Nature: Images from the World’s Edge, Curtsinger has selected some of his best work: images that reflect this master photographer’s profound sensitivity to the underwater environment. “My goal,” he says, “is to immerse myself in an animal’s world so that I can extract from those moments a new image, or a new insight into behavior heretofore unseen. I become the creature I pursue.” In this appearance, Curtsinger will share the results of this pursuit which has taken him to the edge of the photographic world.
