Bernhard Edmaier is a geologist-turned-photographer who, not surprisingly, sees planet Earth as his muse. Exposing the beauty of rock formations and winding rivers, his photographs capture the works of fine art hiding on the sprawling lands of Laguna Roja, Chile or the chilly expanses of Berzeliusbjerg, Greenland. The aerial images reveal the wild beauty of geography that all too often goes unseen.

Organized aesthetically according to color, the publication is basically a coffee table version of a helicopter flight around the world.

"He knows how to find those places, and then isn't scared of getting into a very small plane and photographing them."
