Summary

This world-renowned photographer spent five years flying across five continents and 60 countries to capture the look of the Earth's surface, and humankind's mark on it. From a thousand pink flamingoes lining the banks of Lake Nakura in Kenya to the spire of the chrysler building in New York City, take an aerial view of the planet on the eve of the 21st century.
