1001 Photography motive # 20 Aerial photography

I do not know what criteria an image has to full fill to be considered an aerial photo. Is it enough to stand on a chair, look down and take a picture that you can call an aerial photo.

I do not know but this one was not taken from free flying in the air. Nor was it taken from an airplane. Still I was high up and looking down. So to me it is close enough to be air born.

I know that Rax the great Icelandic photographer is using his airplane for his photography. Until I get license to fly one and find the money to buy one I will have to let this be enough for now. Once in a while I step onto a plane and shoot downwards but that is nothing I have made a carrier out of which in fact is surprising bearing in mind that one of my first assignments when starting in this business was aerial photography for a shipping company

This image is yet another result from my 6 day trip to Snæfellsnes
