Customer Rating: Summary: Great Teaching Tool Comment: I teach high school photography and show this DVD every year. The students love it. The idea of photojournalism comes alive with this video.

Customer Rating: Summary: cool Comment: Many photographer's dream is to work for National Geographic. Well this tells the truth we do not see and all that glitters is not gold. Very nice and interesting Customer Rating: Summary: one of the best dvd's ever Comment: this dvd is awsome. the more you watch it the more you learn. i've seen it so many times and its still good. Customer Rating: Summary: National Geographic's The Photographers Comment: Stunning works of Art !!! 5 Stars plus for this Book. Customer Rating: Summary: Covers all Aspects of what it's like being a National Geo Photographer Comment: This is great DVD. I watch it more for inspirational and motivational purposes. Though the more and more I watch it, the more and more I pick up on things. Listening to the photographers, their stories, and seeing their work. It helps motivate me to achieve their level of work. Not that that's going to happen anytime soon, but I have noticed a difference, all be it a small one.
This is not an instructional video. It's a pragmatic account of what it's like being a National Geographic photographer; the pitfalls and the promise. It covers all facets of their industry in a very aesthetic way. Even delving into the detail of their work sporadically.
Overall, it's a great way to jump start yourself if you have "photographers block"!!!
