Fotoboek Antarctica | Amber Books
Presented in a landscape format and with captions explaining the story behind each entry, Antarctica is a stunning collection of images celebrating this hostile yet striking continent. On the southernmost tip of the Earth lies one of the world's biggest and most unfriendly landmasses. From the waters of the Southern Ocean to the ice shelves, glaciers, volcanoes, and mountains, Antarctica is one of the most mysterious yet intriguing continents in existence. It is the windiest, driest, and coldest place on Earth, making it uninhabitable for humans; however, the snow, ice, water, and rocks make it simply stunning. Did you know that if you throw boiling water into the air in Antarctica, it will instantly vaporize? Despite these unimaginably harsh conditions, this unique continent is home to a vast array of wildlife; penguins, seals, and whales are among the animals that brave this frozen planet.

Fotoboek Arctic | Amber Books
Arctic: Life Inside the Arctic Circlepresents a snapshot of what life is like in the frosty world of this wintry paradise, its challenges far removed from those of our own more temperate climate. The Arctic may be cold and remote, but it is far from being a barren wasteland; in fact, it is teeming with life and activity, and is one of the most beautiful places on our planet. Arctic includes stunning photographs of the region's most inspiring landscapes and the animal residents of this northernmost area of the world, and an insight into how industry, research, and tourism has impacted the terrain.

Reisgids Curves Iceland - IJsland | Delius Klasing Verlag
Feuer und Eis   Beim Thema Island wird schnell klar: Hier regiert der Gegensatz! Eben noch zittert man angesichts der peitschenden Wogen des Nordmeers, doch schon ein paar Kilometer weiter wird man vom heißen Wasser der Blauen Lagune umspült, während man inmitten eines Lavafelds ein Bad nimmt. Die Insel ist ein einziger Vulkan, der jedoch nicht vollständig aktiv ist. Nebenbei befindet sich hier aber auch der größte Gletscher Europas. In der Hauptstadt Reykjavík pulsiert das Leben, während die restlichen Einwohner auf der ganzen Insel verteilt sind.   Heiß und kalt, rau und sanft, belebt und einsam – was fehlt da noch? Richtig: sanftes Gleiten und ambitionierte Kurvenfahrt. Stefan Bogner erkundet erneut die Insel, der er mit seinem Band „Epic“ bereits ein Denkmal gesetzt hat. Auf dem Weg liegen spektakuläre Routen, die ihn einmal um ganz Island herumführen. Vorbei an schroffem Gebirge, endlosen Weiten, umtosten Küsten – aber auch zu Gast bei freundlichen Isländern, die beweisen, dass m…

Fotoboek Lost in Iceland | Mal og Menning
Fotoboek Lost in Iceland | Mal og Menning
Eén van IJsland's meest gerenomeerde fotografen heeft een schitterend fotoboek samengesteld van dit magische land. Mooie uitvoering, harde kaft. Stunning colour photographs of the barren beauty of the Icelandic landscape. The sounds evoked by Sigurgeir Sigurjonsson's photographs are the eternal sounds of nature - the sighing of the wind, the lapping of waves, the hissing of steam and the unchanging roar of a waterfall. In the elemental world of these pictures, man is largely absent. The brief initimate glimpses we are given of human life - a farmhouse kitchen, a man fishing, a family attending the lambing - only serve to underline the overwhelming emptiness of the Icelandic landscape. It is these very qualities of peace, quiet and solitude that many visitors are seeking when they come to iceland - one of the last places in Europe where you can lose yourself in a wilderness seemingly untouched by man. Lost in Iceland is an astounding book presenting pictures of superb quality. Iceland …

Productomschrijving

A hotspot in the North Atlantic, Iceland is one of the world's most unusual countries. It is Europe's second largest island but its most sparsely populated country. Sitting astride the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, linking the North Atlantic plate with the Eurasian plate, it is closer to Greenland than Europe. It lies just south of the Arctic Circle, but, warmed by Gulf Stream waters, has a temperate climate. It has fiery volcanoes and freezing glaciers, striking black sand beaches and hot geysers - the word geyser itself comes from Icelandic. And a geologically young landmass, Iceland is still taking shape: a volcanic eruption in 1963 caused the formation of the new island of Surtsey. Iceland is a fascinating exploration of this most beautiful island. From volcanoes and lava flows to geysers and geothermal pools, from bird life to whale-watching, from national parks, verdant valleys to inland tundra, and from how waterfalls are used for hydro-electric power to Reykjavik's city life, the book is packed with 200 spectacular colour photographs. Presented in a landscape format and with captions explaining the story behind each entry, Iceland is a stunning collection of images celebrating the world's most curious island.
