Re: The Earth
It's ossum - and I love the way that no matter how insanely intelligent us humans think we are, we will never ever have control over the power which created that beauty

Never mind soldier, get your wife to tuck you up in bed and read you a nice bedtime story, there's a good chap.  
EDIT: Actually some of those images are rather stunning, nice find.

Re: The Earth
I recognise those photos..they come from my coffee table book entitled 'The Earth From The Air.The Earth is a beautiful wonder resource for an artist.I could use everyone of those for a beautiful work of art.Several of them would make a wonderful weaving or freestyle embroidered hanging...
Nice one Rammy..

Re: The Earth
a lot of these (probably all, actually) are on display at the open air art gallery in birmingham city centre (by the big wheel). they are massive prints, and look even better close up
they have captions too, explaining where they are and what they are

Re: The Earth
Nice find, not all those places are as beautiful as they look though.
This one, for example, looks like a beautiful sandy golden beach:
But when I was there a few years ago the "sand" was actually extremely pointy stones and shale which was difficult and painful to walk on. Oh yeah, and there was a cow rotting in one corner of the beach, it had fallen off of the cliff above.
