Glad some people appreciate photography you can visit his website(s) if your interested the link is now in the first post. Some of the material you'll see is a tad different to this stuff but still extremely good.

Very nice!

Wow, that was really awesome.

You don't get to appreciate such things when you're on the ground all day long.

I forget which Native American tribe, but they made large glyphs on the ground that were meant to be seen from the sky. They're from the Louisiana area I think. Mound builders, maybe? But the weird part is that there were no airplanes back then.

Maybe they're for our extraterrestrial friends.

Edit- It'd be nice if he put a small description in every photo though.

I'd like to know where he shot some of them, just to get a sense of where I am.

There is a glyph or whatever somewhere of a monkey in a place I believe that there are no monkeys.

That one causes anthropologists some trouble - does anyone have more detail about it?

Wow. I've only been to one of those places, and I've never seen it from above. *sigh*
ps Former Soviet satellites are depressing as hell

Maybe its inspiration was a human...?

Never heard of it, if it was based on another primate.

Yes, they are depressing.

And the deforestation ones.

I don't think that I've even been to any of the places in the photos, nonetheless seeing it from the sky.
