The Photographers includes a behind-the-scenes look into the lives of National Geographic photographers and how they get the shot presented in a compelling one-hour program; plus the bonus half-hour film on wildlife filmmakers Dereck and Beverly Joubert entitled A Passion for Africa; an assortment of photographs in the Photo Gallery; biographies and photos of the photographers; an interactive trivia quiz; and trailers of other related National Geographic programs.

Volcanoes, earthquakes, and tornadoes all can cause enormous damage, and predicting where and when they will strike is of great importance. Volcanologist Dr. Marie Edmonds has devised sensors that monitor the underground activity of magma to better predict future eruptions on the Caribbean island of Monserrat, the site of the massive 1995 eruption captured for this film. Geophysicist Dr. Ross Stein studied the earthquake repair records in Istanbul's Hagia Sophia over the centuries to find clues about the history of earthquakes in Turkey. He discovers a pattern in quakes along the long North Anatolian Fault system, including the massively destructive quake at Izmit in 1999, and predicts the next earthquake just a few miles south of Istanbul. Dr. Joshua Wurman and his team chase tornados in trucks equipped with Doppler radar in an attempt to probe the interior of a tornado just as it is born.

北极狼群荒野生活的亲密纪录 　　加拿大的埃尔斯米尔岛，距离北极不到五百哩。在这酷寒的极地，只有极特殊的动物才能生存，白狼就是其中之一。在世上其他地区，狼群饱受人类的迫害而对人类深怀戒心，难以靠近观察。然而此地人迹罕至，白狼徜徉在冰冷荒原上悠然自得，对人类毫不畏惧。国家地理摄影师吉姆．布兰登勃格与研究狼群三十年的生物学家戴夫．米奇连袂前往此岛，在极为恶劣的环境下，拍摄了有史以来对狼群观察最细致、最亲密的生态纪录片
