Incredible stuff - the only other time I can remember being so enthralled by a series of photographs was when on holiday with friends in Austria. We randomly came across a fascinating display by a guy called Yann Arthus-Bertrand - they weren't wildlife pictures as such, but amazing studies of scenery around the globe...breathtaking stuff. I didn't have much spending money but I still bought the books - Earth From The Air - for a small fortune. Still don't regret it!
