I can't really afford to travel - if I save up I can every now and again, but I know I'll probably never be one of those people who will be fortunate enough to see the whole world. Which is why I love, love, love photography books that focus on the world's natural beauty. Hey, if you aren't going to see it in person, why not enjoy the photos? DK is one of my favorite publishers of photography and reference books - their books are always extremely detailed, gorgeous, and loaded with tons upon tons of useful information. "Natural Wonders of the World" is no exception. The adobe digital editions file provided by Netgalley is obviously a very low-low-res version of the final book - now I'm desperate for the final version because it's going to be amazing.

This book is also a great reminder as to why we should protect our planet. Our planet is beautiful. Maybe we should do something about climate change before the beauty in the world dries up or floods?
