Thought-provoking beauty,
This review is from: Earth from the Air (Hardcover)
I, too, saw an outdoor exhibition of the photos from this book and also could not resist buying it, even though I had to lug it all the way from Vienna around Austria and then back to San Francisco! But it was worth it! I think is more interesting than the "Earth from Above" series, since the images are unusual and all come with a detailed explanation of the cultural or ecological meaning they convey.

This review is from: Earth from Above (Hardcover)
I was wandering along my way to the Natural History museum and I found that outside there was a photo exhibit. Massive prints from this book were displayed, and the work is excellent. After seeing it I was compelled to buy the book. The photos are beautiful and it is certainly worth it.
