    About the Book

    Edit

    Welcome to our journey to Galápagos, a unique archipelago of islands on the equator, in the Pacific Ocean, one thousand kilometres west of the coast of Ecuador. This is one of the most important natural history sites in the world, a laboratory of evolution. In this book we share jottings and photos of our exploration of many of the islands with added information about each island and the birds, animals and plants that make those islands their home. Galápagos is a place where the wildlife shows no fear of their human visitors, thanks to the strict rules that visitors must abide by. It’s a place that helps to put into context Charles Darwin's groundbreaking work on the 'Theory of Evolution", a theory that becomes real before your very eyes. It's a place that leaves you in awe of nature; that stirs your very soul; it's a place that, once visited, is never forgotten. So why not join us for the journey.

    About the Creator

    Jennie Thomas
    Canberra, ACT, Australia

    I now live in Canberra, Australia but I've enjoyed exploring the world, camera in hand, for over 50 years. I enjoy meeting people, learning about different cultures, experiencing new environments and capturing the essence of people and places through my photography. Over the last twenty years, I have travelled extensively with my friend and fellow photographer, David Young, often to places off the beaten track. The focus of our travels has also included discovering family history, filming the beauty of gardens and seeking out wildflowers. David is a horticulturist and has been a radio broadcaster and television presenter. I've spent a lifetime in education, and I enjoy sharing my travel experiences and photography through my books and my writing.
