Art meets science and earth in EARTHSONG, a spectacular collection of breathtaking aerial photographs of the earth's surface, available in paperback for the very first time. The book is divided into four chapters or 'zones': Aqua, Green, Desert, and Barren. The photographs are accompanied by text offering the geographical context and explaining the importance of climate and the impact of humans on the environment. EARTHSONG features photographs from around the world, from the Bahamas to Iceland, New Zealand to North America, and Europe to Alaska. It includes a wide variety of subjects, from bubbling mud pools, volcanic eruptions, coral reefs, and deserts to eroded canyons and arctic glaciers. By celebrating the earth's natural beauty, EARTHSONG documents the threatened wild landscapes of our planet and is ideal for those interested in preservation and environmental issues as well as photography.
