"You Are Here: Around the World in 92 Minutes" by Chris Hadfield
While working on the International Space Station, Hadfield took some really amazing photos of different parts of the Earth, and this book is the result. The unexpected colors and geometric designs were fascinating, and I would like to have large copies of some to hang on my walls. The crop circles in Libya formed by center-pivot irrigation looked like Braille while other shapes naturally made looked like various animals. The Tongue of the Ocean, which is a trench between two islands in the Bahamas, was one of my favorites with flowing shades of blue. I first saw this book posted in the UCPL book blog by Christa. 200 pages.
