Namibia

A series of aerial landscapes from Namibia, exploring abstraction in landscapes. Aerial photography provides an element of duality and ambiguity. The images are, at least temporarily, removed from their reality they take on different forms and in some cases appear to be of microscopic origins or reminiscent of something else entirely. This ambiguity and departure from reality is what intrigues and inspires my work. All images where taken from Cessna light aircraft or helicopters with doors removed using a medium format camera. I love the direct feedback looking through the camera at my subject and responding to what I see.
