When I first glanced at the Thomas Mailaender 'Extreme Tourism' photo series, I was astonished with what was presented. Instead of depicting actual extreme tourism shots, these images are actually hilariously photoshopped compositions.
With the help of Hawaiian-based volcano photographer Steve Young, the Thomas Mailaender 'Extreme Tourism' photo series erupted with a bang. Together they created a Volcano Village, a website that allows you to satisfy your inner extremist.
