The Overview Effect.
For thousands of years we have looked up at the skies.
Now, we have the chance to look down, and see how fortunate we are to have this place to call home.

Cities from space are light maps: They're political. They're beautiful. They're wild.

Each print is:
- Limited edition: numbered and signed by hand
- Printed on museum quality Hahnemuhle German Etching 320gsm paper. This is the best quality paper there is, it’s lightfast (meaning it will last for many years without fading). I selected it for it’s textured effect that is similar to the watercolour paper I chose to work on in the original paintings.
