A wanderlust-inspiring and transporting collection of photos from some of the world's most astounding places, organized thematically—vistas, sunrises and sunsets, city streets and urban life, tropical jungles, dramatic architectural facades, food stalls and restaurants, and more—from the premier online curator of travel photography.
As much an armchair travel companion as a guide to planning your next trip, My Tiny Atlas contains more than 200 lush, surprising, and stunning photos, along with stories about far-flung locales and tips for experiencing a new location like a local. From Tiny Atlas Quarterly —one of the most trusted sources for authentic, unusual, and inspiring travel photography—this book takes you to every continent and all corners of the world, from Paris, San Francisco, London, and Buenos Aires to the Arctic Circle, Tanzania, Tahiti, and Mongolia. My Tiny Atlas visually explores new destinations with an intimate, insider's view—not of the usual monuments and tourist attractions, but of the real people, mouth-watering food, verdant flora, bustling streets, wild animals, epic views, lazy rivers, architectural gems, and other details that make you feel what it's like to truly be in another place, whether or not you ever leave home.
Devoured this book as soon as it arrived. Tiny Atlas Quarterly is my favorite Instagram account - I love the non-traditional travel photos that Emily curates. I sat for hours looking at every photo in the book and reading the interviews with highlighted photographers. It's a perfect book for anyone with a serious case of wanderlust or for someone who appreciates photography and adventure. Also! The way that the book is arranged (by themes like Wild and Epic) make it so interesting and engaging. Truly, truly could not recommend more.
We've come full circle: photo books became IG which has now become a photo book.
There's no wisdom or experience imparted through these pages. It's just page after page of photos that look "cool" on IG, e.g. bright colors, or has cliched elements (white sandy beach, field of flowers).
It only took 30 minutes to go through all the photos, and I did see a few that I liked. For what it is (a curated list of IG photos), it served its purpose.
