"Gilles Martin est un des plus connus et des meilleurs photographes animalier français. Dans cet imposant album de 320 pages, il a réuni ses meilleurs images d’oiseaux. Son oeil de photographe le pousse à dénicher les beautés naturelles et à les cadrer avec un sens aigu de la lumière. Les Editions de la Martinière ont eu la bonne idée de publier les photos de Gilles en grand format, et comme la qualité d’impression est au rendez-vous, le spectacle est grandiose."
