- Flashtone, on 06/08/2008, -1/+39Credit to the photographer and crew.. Yann Arthus Bertrand, he's one of my favorite and a true inspiration.
"Earth From Above" is a coffee table book he did, its around 45 USD. Go pick it up, you will not be disappointed! Any guests at your home will be joyed to thumb through it. Its about 10 pounds loaded with stunning aerial photographs. along with the photographs a description of the subject. - xerexes1, on 06/09/2008, -1/+37You really should have just linked to the photographer's page, since all photos are from that site: http://www.yannarthusbertrand.org/v2/yab_us.htm
- rhustang, on 06/08/2008, -2/+32wow...a collection that actually lives up to the digg title! amazing pictures.

- ivan423, on 06/09/2008, -1/+11I like the 5 and 110 interchange. It doesn't always look like that. Most of the time it looks like a parking lot. Damn L.A. traffic.
- s4g4n, on 06/08/2008, -3/+12Looks like a Crysis 10,000 barrel explosion test on pic 5.
- Fershizzll, on 06/08/2008, -1/+9Yeah, 'cus it's not clichéd to be a cynical dick on the internet.
- louiebaur, on 06/08/2008, -6/+13That picture of the Amazon River is really cool

- inactive, on 06/09/2008, -0/+6The Pripiat photo is my favorite here. An urban explorer's paradise.
- worseforwine, on 06/09/2008, -0/+4Why do I suddenly feel an overwhelming urge to play Command and Conquer?
- isimon42o, on 06/09/2008, -0/+4thank you!
- Brotodeau, on 06/09/2008, -1/+5...also not cliché at all to point out someone else's cynical dick-ism with equal cynical dick-ism
- xtinamo, on 06/09/2008, -2/+68th photo down...is that Rohan?

- jothaxe, on 06/09/2008, -0/+2The photo of the Los Angeles freeways is labeled wrong. That is the intersection of the 110 and 105 freeways, not the 110 and 5 freeways.
- xchaoskittyx, on 06/09/2008, -0/+2The Volcanoes were my favorite.

- cadmiumpaint, on 06/09/2008, -0/+2Really nice stuff. I wonder if those shots are "pure" or if he bumped up the saturations? He has some pretty nice colors going on there.

- josephneaves, on 06/09/2008, -0/+1Wow, That "Access Denied" message sure is a beauty.
Digging from work...ftl - ShellShock11, on 06/10/2008, -0/+1The Pripiat photo is amazing. I never realized that a mission in Call of Duty 4 took place there. (The one where you kill the rabid dogs in the swimming pool and then hold out near the ferris wheel). Crazy the kind of destruction the human race can cause.

Murf. - wayyy, on 06/10/2008, -0/+1The last picture kind of ruined the mood for me.
Everything up until that point was serene beauty, but the last picture was the disastrous effects of nature.
But aside from that, those were some incredible photos. - nikeboy32, on 06/09/2008, -0/+1Wow, the clouds are absolutely amazing in the first few
