Review
'These abstractly beautiful compositions offer an awe-inspiring view of the planet...the photographs appear more like art than a geological survey. In fact, it's enough to send viewers into a bit of a trance. And once we've scooped our jaws off the floor, perhaps this book will help us respect this marvelous planet a bit more;

I already own Earthsong by Bernard Edmaier and that is why I ordered Patterns of the Earth. I was not disappointed, there are colour images virtually on every page (225 pages). Unlike Earthsong it is not a heavy book and can fit into my handbag. Under each image, we are told where it was photographed - I only wish I could go to all these places! As a person who loves abstracts, I can only say that this book is stunning and is an absolute steal at this price. It is well set out, sections for example marked, bands, stripes, circles, spots, grains to name but a few. I am sure anyone who buys this book will be captivated by it. A truly beautiful book.

Patterns of the Earth
there was no way of knowing how small the book is so most of the photos are only 10cm square. Some are double page spreads but that means a fold down the middle.

As a painter and photographer and having an interest in geology I found this book an excellent inspiration. The photographs of various swirling, rippling and curving rock formations and aerial shots of meandering rivers(and more)are stunning and such high quality and with just the right amount of text and information that is easy to understand. Also..its small enough to fit in your pocket....Altogether I would say...a beautiful book!
