Pio Cabanillas

From Argentina to Vietnam, Greenland to Kenya, Mount Everest to the Grand Canyon, the Dead Sea in Jordan to the valley of the Baltoro glacier in Pakistan, Gaia is a collection of images of the most beautiful and startling natural landscapes in the world.

In the words of its author, Spanish photographer Pio Cabanillas (born 1958), "nature is something so vast and so hypnotizing, that either you find yourself or you fade away right there. Great landscapes make you feel tiny and at the same time, part of something immense." Gaia perfectly conveys that hypnosis--that sometimes disquieting impression--we feel before the world's natural wonders. A spectacular large-format publication, Gaia is a must-have for photography enthusiasts and nature and travel lovers alike.
