Fotoboek Morocco from the Air | Thames & Hudson
Fotoboek Morocco from the Air | Thames & Hudson
Seen from the sky, Morocco seems to be a vast chain of mountains, gradually lowering to the sea. The country's rich farmlands - seen here in Arthus-Bertrand's transcendent photographs as abstract canvases painted in deep yellow saffron, or as brown fields of wheat combined with the brilliant green of large groves of palm and olive - are breathtakingly beautiful when viewed from above. The sky over Morocco is of an unusually vivid blue, the mountains are crowned by snow peaks in winter, and the Mediterranean and Atlantic coastlines draw sun worshippers from all of Europe as soon as cold weather strikes the Continent. In Marrakech is concentrated all the culture of the south. Here is a city of a thousand and one nights, its streets teeming by day with magicians, fakirs and clowns, its luxurious palaces and hotels glistening at night with the multilingual babble of elegant visitors from abroad. In Fez, the intellectual centre of the north, are some of the most beautiful Islamic monuments…

Reisgids Belarus - Wit Rusland | Bradt Travel Guides
Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader! This new, thoroughly updated edition of Bradt's Belarus remains the only full-blown standalone guide to the most westerly of the constituent republics that formed the Soviet Union prior to the break-up in 1991.

Reisverhaal Walking the Wharfe | Johno Ellison
Reisverhaal Walking the Wharfe | Johno Ellison
In a world of globetrotting explorers and record-breaking journeys - of which he has been part himself - Johno Ellison decided to return to his roots and walk the entire length of the River Wharfe, the Yorkshire waterway beside which he grew up. In his new book for Bradt, Walking the Wharfe, Ellison retraces the steps of Victorian author Edmund Bogg to investigate how the riverscape and its communities have evolved during the intervening 120 years. While wild camping, meeting modern-day Vikings, wartime ghosts and the fearless 'Dales Dippers', and learning how not to deal with a herd of over-inquisitive cows, Ellison encounters a microcosm of English history and culture. Starting in the Vale of York, Ellison walks upstream to explore the region's Viking and Roman heritage, as well as more modern developments such as Tadcaster's disastrous bridge collapse in 2015. He examines a profusion of Victorian spa towns, considers the impact of the Industrial Revolution and enjoys rare wildlife …

Fotoboek NLXL made in Holland | Scriptum
Fotoboek NLXL made in Holland | Scriptum
In dit nieuwe, prachtig uitgevoerde fotoboek laat Karel Tomeï ons Nederland zien zoals we het kennen maar nooit eerder hebben gezien.   In onze tijd lijkt, mede door ontwikkelingen als satellietfoto's, drones en Google Earth, de luchtfotografie haast een alledaags verschijnsel. Juist nu we zo gewend raken aan de blik van boven, zoals we dat met een muisklik op ons beeldscherm eenvoudig kunnen realiseren en juist nu we zo vertrouwd zijn met het zelf dagelijks fotograferen van onze directe omgeving, is een zorgvuldig samengestelde serie beelden als van Karel Tomeï zo waardevol. Het sluit aan op een eeuwenoude traditie, die terugvoert op de zeventiende-eeuwse prentseries van Hollandse steden en het appelleert tegelijkertijd aan het verlangen naar landschappelijk schoon zoals dat door tal van fotografen telkens opnieuw wordt vastgelegd. In dit boek komen deze systematische en esthetische benadering samen.   Tomeï maakte zijn eerste foto's al op vijfjarige leeftijd en specialiseerde zich i…
