Aerial: The Art of Photography from the Sky Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a person who is trying to "make it big" in aerial and aviation photography I would have liked a little more in depth discussion regarding the techinques he uses. Outside of that minor point, this book is stunning, the images are crystal clear, and the printing is very well done. Unlike many of us who use digital cameras, these images are mostly done on film and with medium format. Which is clearly evidenced by the level of detail he has managed to pull out.
