From intriguing views of the mud mosques and painted villages of West Africa and the colour, passion and mystery of festivals across the continents to the majestic mountain landscapes of Europe and the frozen wilds of the Arctic, ‘Journey Four’ has page after page of stunning photographs that capture everything from broad vistas to quirky details.

A diver explores the icy world beneath an Alpine lake, while, in Indonesia, a beaming young boy swims with his pet shark. 34,000 saffron-robed monks gather for a mass ordination in Thailand, and the Aurora Borealis dance above an illuminated tent in Canada

London is captured in brilliant oranges and reds, and the Eiffel Tower rises like a ghost on a misty, snowy Parisian day. Sand dunes in Death Valley, USA are sculpted into intricate patterns by the wind, and a lion lunges at the camera, jaws gaping, on a South African savana.

‘Journey Four’ would make a wonderful gift for any photographer or traveller (or armchair traveller!). Priced at £25, it is available through bookshops (ISBN: 9780954939649), Amazon and direct from www.tpoty.com.
