Got it - very interesting - thanks.

One has to admire his dedication and passion.

The pic of the now, non existent, Twin Towers, speaks of the value of photographically recording our world every day.

The heart shaped islands, although corny and touristy, made me smile.

The pics of the Great Barrier Reef made me realise what a beautiful and fragile organism we have here and how easily an oil spill could destroy it all.

I really enjoyed how he looked at landscapes from a different (high) viewpoint and played with scales and messed with one's perspective :) .

Thanks for the heads up

Cheers

Yeah .. my sentiments exactly! :) The Earth is such a Beautiful place and to see it for the bird's eye prospective is so cool and interesting.
l liked the hearted shaped islands, the first one 10 years earlier was a ripper!~ then 10 years later, it faded to black.
it made me smile and laugh seeing the African picture of the cub and lion, with the cub biting the butt of the lion, and the lion mouth wide open :D once in a lifetime moment .. captured beautifully.
definitely opens up my mind's eye .. in looking outside the square and seeing things differently.

Cheers
