No country in the world enjoys greater geographical variety than Colombia. And as in so many places, the country"s political jurisdictions, drawn up arbitrarly, have little relation to natural or human boundaries. Here, then, we look beyond man-made frontiers at the rich mixture of landscape, people and cultures which make up present-day Colombia. The photographs which illustrate Panoramic Colombia have been taken by a Roundshot 360º camara which revolves so as to take in everything anyone might observe by standing still and slowly turning full circle. The effect is to place the viewers at the very centre of the picture. In fact, the book"s intention is to take it"s stcance at the heart of each event (or scene) depicted here, as a silent manent witness to what is taking place. Earth and water mingle there. So does Man and the sky above him.
