Matthijs Kuijpers 是一名荷蘭冒險家暨得獎攝影師，過去27年來，他一直在旅行，並拍攝那些最危險、最令人瞠目結舌或瀕臨滅絕的冷血動物(爬行類和兩棲類)，共計超過1,500個物種。
這是Matthijs的第一本書籍，書中收錄他在攝影棚之中所拍攝的冷血動物；離開野生棲地，也沒有外在干擾，而是運用細節特寫和黑色背景，聚焦於展現每一種冷血動物獨特的外觀、體色，甚至──似乎還捕捉到了牠們的個性……
Discover the astonishing world of reptiles and amphibians in a new book by photographer Matthijs Kuijpers
Award-winning Dutch nature photographer Matthijs Kuijpers (born 1973) specializes in herpetofauna: reptiles and amphibians. From the depths of the world's jungles to its driest deserts, Kuijpers has spent 27 years pursuing reptiles and amphibians around the globe. He has photographed 1,500 cold-blooded species (and counting), some of which are exceedingly rare. Kuijpers shoots in astonishing close-up detail, seeking to spotlight the essence of each animal--"no distractions, no environment," as he puts it. Featuring his subjects against a plain black backdrop, Kuijpers brings out their extraordinary colors and textures, even seeming to capture the personality of creatures like the mossy frog, the smooth helmeted iguana and the plumed basilisk. Matthijs Kuijpers: Cold Instinct, the photographer's first book, is a gorgeously produced collection of some of the most peculiar species that have ever crawled or slithered on the earth.
