The photographer Sebastião Salgado spent two years planning the locations and logistics for the project, and then eight years taking the shots.
'Génesis' is fruit of 32 trips to five locations on the planet. One thing that all of the astonishing beautiful black and white images have in common is that they were all taken in places untouched by human intervention, in many cases due to their difficult accessibility.
