Reisverhaal - Natuurgids A Vulture Landscape | Ian Parsons
Reisverhaal - Natuurgids A Vulture Landscape | Ian Parsons
A Vulture Landscape is more than just a book about vultures, in the same way that these majestic flyers are more than just birds. Vultures are a crucial part of many of the world's ecosystems, and without these specialist environmental cleansers the ecosystems wouldn't work properly. A calendar year in the lives of these gargantuan raptors is explored as they live, breed, feed and fly with effortless ease across the skies of the vulture landscape that is Extremadura in central Spain.There are four species of vulture in Europe, and a fifth that is becoming more of a regular visitor as its own global population plummets. The serious conservation issues faced on a day-to-day basis by these species, and their relatives spread across the globe, are explored, issues that in many cases threaten their very survival. However, this book is a celebration of the vulture and the landscape in which it reigns. Using the latest science, his keen eye and his passion for the birds themselves, the autho…

Marvel Vinyl Figure Spectacular Spider-Man #101 13 cm
Marvel Vinyl Figure Spectacular Spider-Man #101 13 cm
Now this is a spectacular return to Youtooz if we do say so ourselves! That's right, Spider-Man is back with another vinyl figure! At 4.9 inches tall and posed in an acrobatic tumble as he swings through the abstract peaks of black and white skyscrapers, his body curls in the middle as he somersaults backwards and grips the end of a long curling web. With his body covered in a pitch-black suit that blends into the darkness of the night, his eyes, soles of his feet and the spider symbol that wraps around his chest are stark white. The exterior of his packaging sees a hole blown through a light green wall as pillars of smoke rise up from the rubble, while the interior is covered in the light grey panels of Marvel comics. The protective sleeve is then filled with a collection of vertigo-inducing black and white buildings as his figure can be seen through the large clear window at the packaging's front. This collectible ships in a matte, embossed, protective outer sleeve and a custom-sized…

Wandelkaart The Great Himalaya Trail | GHT
Wandelkaart The Great Himalaya Trail | GHT
  Prachtige kaartenserie van één van 'swerelds mooiste wandeltochten.   The Far West is one of the least explored areas of Nepal. Its area is bounded to the east by mighty, turquoise Karnali river which flows from Tibet’s sacred Mount Kailash.   Myth and superstition remain part of the fabric of life here. Though the Nepali language originated here, it seems a distant world from ‘modern’ Nepal. One Nepali visitor described his visit as “fascinating, like travelling back to the 18th century.”   Along the trails you may meet a turbaned Dhami, a shaman, with silver-bangled limbs and gold-ringed ears, who are still depended on for treating sickness.   Organised tourism has so far been limited to Khaptad National Park, the only national park in the mid-hills of Nepal and held dearly by conservationists. Gentle hills, pristine forests and abundant wildlife with a snow-covered backdrop of the Nampa, Api and Saipal peaks make for beautiful trekking.   It’s also a holy place associated with Kh…

Productomschrijving

Axel van der Kraan has a less than optimistic view of humans and civilisation. He is fascinated by power and bureaucracy and the absurdity of routines and rules that sometimes seem to oppress people more than help them. The artist sees the world as an “unfocused, absurd, and aimless battleground”. His sculptures, however, are characterised by a high degree of inventiveness in their construction and use of materials. New, recognisable images are created from discarded household appliances and machines; a waste bin becomes the body of a soldier and a sink the gun turret of a tank. This book examines his body of work since 1985, including assemblages, rubbings, and woodcuts.
