Indonesia is one of the greatest countries on earth. The beauty and pristine nature of this unique island archipelago can now be admired by tropical enthusiasts in the comprehensive coffee table book "Tropics & Traditions - Stories of Indonesia" by Manolo Ty.
The photo artist takes us on a journey to the most remote indigenous peoples, who live far from the civilization we know and lead lives rooted in tradition and harmony with nature. In impressive shots, some taken from unusual perspectives such as from the air with drones or underwater, we see undiscovered jungles, lonely islands, mighty volcanoes and dreamlike coral reefs.
Ty also bridges the country's bustling metropolises, which could hardly be a more vivid contrast to the breathtaking beauty of nature. He shows us Bali and Jakarta, where imposing buildings mingle with traditional structures and the temples of Buddhism and Hinduism.
In the impressive coffee table book "Tropics & Traditions," Manolo Ty always tells fascinating stories. About amazing encounters with archaic peoples, majestic natural landscapes, lonely places and imposing cities.
For all lovers of Southeast Asia who crave a high-caliber photo book that provides visually stunningly deep insight into this partly untouched island nation, "Tropics & Traditions" is a true source of inspiration.
