Yann Arthus-Bertrand, originalmente cargada por ionbulgar.

Yann Arthus-Bertrand (born 13 March 1946) is a renowned and internationally recognised French photographer. He originally specialised in animal photography but later turned to aerial photography of subjects in many locations across the world. He has produced over 60 books of his landscape photographs taken from helicopters and balloons. Yann Arthus-Bertrand's work has been frequently published in National Geographic magazine.

His works have both political and aesthetic connotations, and have been exhibited in public spaces worldwide. Arthus-Bertrand is a member of the "Académie des Beaux-Arts de l'Institut de France".

In 1991, he founded the Altitude Agency in Paris, a photographic library that specializes in aerial photography. It is the only one of its kind. In 2000, Arthus-Bertrand created an exhibition with a collection of 100,000 photographs taken in 76 countries which make up his Earth from the Air exhibit. Some of these have been published in his book 365 days: Earth from the Air and exhibited in London, Singapore, Poland, The Netherlands, Finland and elsewhere.

One of Arthus-Bertrand's best-known photographs is of the 'heart' of Voh in New Caledonia, which he has used as the cover of several of his books: The Earth from the Air and Earth from Above.
