mothperson said A Spectacular Book. Fabulous photographs of undersea things. Wonderful stuff to experiment with watercolors, if you're a beginner. Try painting one of these photographs and, you're an artist! I love this book.. "Horrible Condition" according to Amazon Customer. The book itself and the photos are absolutely beautiful however upon receiving the item it was damaged. The book had water stains on it, the book was bowed in areas and there was mold on the back cover underneath the cover sheat. I was really disappointed because this was a gift for one of my college professors.. Not for me. Hansen I thought it was a book on sea scenes but it is just a book for coffee tables. It has pictures of eyes of fish and so on eyes. Pictures of parts no scenes. Boring. I wanted something I could use to paint pretty things under the sea. Dumb.
