Our planet
earth is extremely beautiful, that has captured by British Photographer Peter
Adams with stunning images of African deserts, plunging waterfalls and Arctic
snows capes from 3,000ft, is making some of the world’s greatest landscapes
look like captivating works of abstract art. The nature lover photographer
travelled thousands of miles to document the varied surfaces of the planet (all
from high above). The 55-year-old, from the Cotswolds, snapped the images while
flying in light aircraft, helicopters and gyrocopters over some of the most
well-known tourist destinations in the world, including Yellowstone National
Park in the US and Namibia’s Namib Desert.
From high
above, Yellowstone’s Grand Prismatic Spring looks like an alien volcano, while
the desert in Andalucia, Spain looks like a scene from Mars. Some of his most
remarkable photographs were captured in Australia, where he flew over the blue
waters at the Great Barrier Reef and a beach in Queensland, where the sand
meets the sea to create an outstanding swirling pattern. Moreover another image
from Queensland shows the destructive force of lightning, as a green forest is
marred by a patch of grey, dead trees. In other scenes, travelers look like
ants as they snap photos of a superb waterfall in Iceland, and strips of land
nestled between canals in northern Holland look like brushstrokes. Peter’s work
has been featured in publications around the world and he has been recognized
with several awards and honors, including 2003 Travel Photographer of the Year.
