 |

| Las Vegas, USA.Laforet said the small hotels and Ferris wheel of one part of the city reminded him of a Monopoly board when shot from such a height. |
 |
| Los Angeles, USA.The photo shows the city's main highway. “Space was born from a desire to share an important lesson I discovered during my decade of aerial photography: The world is much smaller than we think,” says Laforet. |
 |
| He added:“Borders are no longer necessary, and distances have become shorter. We are more connected than we think.” Space Photobook is available for online order. |
