Bird's-eye view from paragliding photographer

These are the breathtaking images of the world's most beautiful landscapes -- taken by a globetrotting paraglider. High-flying photographer Jody Macdonald, 37 sailed at speeds of 35kph and reached altitudes of 20,000ft over some of the most remote landscapes in the world to get some of her shots. From the remote sand dunes in Mozambique to the deep Sierra mountains, Jody braved freezing temperatures to capture the stunning views. A self-taught paragliding pilot and passionate photographer, Jody began combining her two passions over a decade ago.
