Following up on yesterday’s post on Michael Poliza, Jason Kottke reminds me of Yann-Arthus Bertrand, who takes similarly beautiful aerial photographs. I can highly recommend his book Earth from Above (but you need a sturdy coffee table).

I have that book, it’s full of absolutely stunning shots. I love YAB’s work. But yes, it’s an enormous book and weighs a ton! I found that in the UK they were selling a smaller book instead, but it’s not as impressive, so get the large copy if you can.
