Pacific Landscapes


Pacific landscapes are diverse, from towering volcanos to low coral atolls. The ocean is always close at hand, yet good Pacific landscape photography extends far beyond the beach. Our travel pictures illustrate the soaring peaks of Polynesia, rugged ranges of Fiji, and thick jungles of Micronesia.

All photos on Pacific-Pictures.com are by David Stanley, author of Moon Handbooks South Pacific. The images on this page are details. To view the complete photos, click on the thumbnails.
