Dear reader,



The world we live in is a fantastic place and this book is a celebration of that fact. As far as I can remember I have been fascinated by the world due to its remarkable ability to surprise us, to stun us by its beauty as well as diversity and to exceed our wildest dreams. Somewhere along the road I decided to pick up a camera and portray the world that fascinates me.



After a number of years, the collection of captured images has grown significantly and eventually I decided to put together a selection of my favorites into this book that I have illustratively called my world. My hope with this book is that it will inspire you to see the beauty in this world and make you create one of your own in case you have not already done so.



I wish you a great journey, through this book and through life.



Regards //atm
