Summary:

"In Patterns of the Earth, Bernhard Edmaier's photographs of the unspoiled areas of the earth are organized by the shape and form of the patterns they depict. Very different geological forces can create surprisingly similar structures, making for unexpected links between the most disparate regions of the planet. Craters, pools and streams; estuaries, icebergs and salt flats; sea beds, deserts and glaciers - all are represented in this panoply of patterns, encouraging us to look at our planet in a new way." "Commentaries by the geologist Angelika Jung-Huttl accompany Edmaier's photographs and explain where, how and why these patterns and formations naturally occur."--Jacket.
