The lens of Jim Wark, an aerial photographer committed to the North American continent, has for years skillfully spied out the mysteries and secrets of this great land, immortalizing the changing nature of the country, the infinite patterns of cultivated land, the interlacing of small and large roads, the silence of nature and the convulsive life of the cities. Now all these images are brought together in a single, unique volume. This is the America the world dreams of, the America of unlimited space and breathtakingly beautiful countryside – a land of unceasing human activity that drives its continual renewal.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Jim Wark is an aerial photographer who specializes in capturing unusual landscape and cultural images of North and Central America.
Working alone, Wark has photographed the continent from Alaska to Labrador in the north; and from Costa Rica to the Lesser Antilles in the south.
In eleven years he has flown more than 5,000 hours, and taken more than 100,000 photographs. To guide him, he uses aviation skills gained as a Naval Aviator and airshow pilot, and a love of the earth and its forms gained from a career as a mining engineer and geologist. The photography is represented by photo agencies in the U.S., U.K., France, and Australia. Membership is maintained in ASMP (American Society of Media Photographers) and PAPA (Professional Aerial Photographers Association). His work was judged "Best of Show" by PAPA for four consecutive years (1995-1998).

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. This book takes a pictorial look at the nation from above, with dazzling full-color photographs of each region of the United States of America. These territories continue to reach out to settlers and travelers, challenging those who would try to conquer its mountains, rivers, and canyons as well as those who try get to know its patchwork quilt of people and regional cultural variations. The reader takes a thrilling journey over mountains, deserts, mighty rivers, swaths of farmland, and the great cities and landmark skyscrapers, all shown from an aerial vantage point.The design of the pages is carefully planned to bring out the panoramic qualities of the exceptionally beautiful photographs. The reduced album format of the book has been chosen to emphasize the wide-angle approach of the pictures. Artikel-Nr. cbd7bf61-99e7-4c83-a834-39931c823162
