Por la rapidez y preocupaciones de nuestras propias vidas parece que nos olvidamos del fantástico mundo que nos rodea, pero siempre hay alguien apasionado que está ahí para hacernos «ver» de nuevo como el fotógrafo español Daniel Beltrá quien en sus fantásticas imágenes muestra la agitación del mundo natural.

Mediante la perspectiva única de la fotografía aérea hace hincapié en la perspectiva de los recursos finitos de la Tierra, así consigue reflejar la fugacidad del ecosistema, algo que sin duda consigue y es algo que lo ha distinguido de otros y es que estas tomas ofrecen un contexto más amplio de la belleza y la destrucción de la naturaleza.

Ese impulso de hacer reflexionar a las personas lo han llevado durante las últimas dos décadas por todos los continentes, entre los que destacan las expediciones a la Amazonia brasileña, el Ártico, el Océano Antártico y los campos de hielo de la Patagonia.

El resultado de estos viajes está en la comunión de lo horrible y lo hermoso, pues por un lado la Tierra aún conserva la belleza, pero la presencia del hombre deja graves huellas.

Ilulissat, GreenlandJuly 7th 2014, Iceland aerialsWater in Iceland's Ölfusá River flows around sandbars towards the Atlantic Ocean, July 7th 2014. The Ölfusá is Iceland's largest river and its watershed drains 6100 square kilometers or 1/7th of Iceland, including the Langjökull glacier. According to a recent study by the University of Arizona to be published in Geophysical Research Letters, parts of Iceland are rising as much as 35mm per year; this is directly related to the melting of Iceland's glaciers and to global warming.September 17, 2013.
