I learned to fly because I love the way the world looks from above: the earth as an abstract painter's canvas. The pictures in this collection are a mix of commercial aerial photos and those more abstract images. On occasion, as with the cooling ponds, the two come together.
The fish-eye shots of the Golden Gate Bridge were taken from a small helicopter using a rig I built that put the camera below the 'copter skids. The air-to-air photos of the DC-8 were shot from a Learjet piloted by the legendary Clay Lacy. Most of the rest were taken from a Cessna 150 that I was flying myself. I truly hope you enjoy them.
