Let's face it, Google Earth, while incredibly helpful, is not the most esthetically pleasing thing we've ever seen, which is why we were shocked to learn that these beautiful landscapes are actually satellite images from the site.
Argentinian artist Federico Winer's new series "Ultradistancia" features Google Earth shots from around the world that have been edited with different magnitudes, perspectives, colors, and luminosity. Winer feels that the resulting psychedelic and geometric landscapes are about "taking infinite tours over our planet from the marvelous screens of Google Earth to the encounter of geometries, shapes and topographies, natural and humans."
