The Colors of the Earth

This large-format coffee-table book includes over 300 luscious images, disclosing such sights as: • mountain peaks glowing red under the setting sun • ocean shores glistening blue • black volcanic rock erupting into vivid red founts of fire • softer pastel tones blanketing a blooming heath or lavender field • a medley of greens—deep-green hues of tropical rainforests, poison-green reptiles, and light-green fresh undergrowth in valleys Travelers, photographers, anthropologists, and daydreamers alike will marvel at the almost infinite expanse of orange tones in Wadi Rum or Rub al-Khali and the vibrant purple lupines blossoming in Arthur's Pass National Park. Earth is an inexhaustible treasure of rich colors and diverse forms.
