eye on high

fair warning this is a large sized book,all the photos are shot from the air some of the shots are close up and others are wide and high up most photos are of nature/natural there are also a few of built up/city/industrial photos of any kind are subjective,even though i liked most,some were great a few didn't do it for me i still recomend it
