The Natural World - Pushing Boundaries

56m 58s

Through the lens of photographer Todd Gustafson’s camera, the documentary explores expanded horizons, traveling from the driest deserts in Africa to the “roof of the world” in the Himalayas. Employing both powerful fisheye lenses to capture panoramic vistas, and macro lenses that give a close, intimate view of tiny creatures, the hour-long documentary tells stories of evolution and adaptation.
