Matt Crawford speaks to National Geographic photographer and author Jason Edwards about his book, Icebergs to Iguanas. Jason Edwards is a National Geographic photographer and television presenter. He’s been bitten, clawed, chased, chewed, shot at, and stoned (with rocks), defecated and urinated on; smuggled, groomed, diseased, lost, injured, incarcerated, frightened, and enamored. He has spent the past three decades exploring the world with a camera in hand, bearing witness to the miracle of Nature and the complexities of the human condition.

After countless frames and unmapped miles, ‘Icebergs to Iguanas’ features a collection of his favorite National Geographic stories and behind-the-scenes tales. Enlightened with fascinating captions and personal observations extracted from his field journals, ‘Icebergs to Iguanas’ has been described as ‘a love letter to planet Earth’.

Photography is more than just capturing beautiful pictures it’s about telling a story. Jason’s goal is to take people on a journey filled with beauty, adventure, hardship and danger, disease, laughter, and wonder. To inspire people about the natural world in which we live, whilst simultaneously celebrating our diverse cultures. ‘Icebergs to Iguanas’ is a bespoke book, a cacophony of composition, color, and contrast.
