For Those New to My Aerial Wilderness Photography ~ yehaw

in photography •  7 years ago 

This is a short film that explains a bit about what I do to get these images. I am a film maker as well and do all of my own production from cinematography and post production editing, narration and music. 

My goal is to raise awareness of the 47% of the United States and 90% of Canada that remain wilderness. And also I want to introduce folks to flying, there are far too few pilots and a real shortage in the aviation industry. Hopefully someone may see this and go "wow, I want to do that". 

I am an aerial wilderness landscape photographer as a hobby that has become a business, with a select adventurous few who have become collectors of my fine art photographic reproductions. I post them on here once and a while. 

I love the entire blockchain validation of the work overall and really enjoy the creativity that steemians put into the original work I read here. I want to contribute to the community in a way I hope to help by increasing the very visual lexicon with which we describe the planet... I offer a view Where Eagles Fly that is unique to the normal view from on the ground or high up in jet airliners. 

These are views of the planet I get to see all the time by flying through these areas. Technology has gotten to the point in camera design that it is possible to mount these very small cameras throughout the aircraft to capture the feeling of flight through these beautiful places. 

Also, I just love to make short films, I will post a few here.

Absolutely stunning!
Amazing work sir!!! Thank you.
You can probably make a few extra dollars at this new amp coin based video platform by synereo. Heres my short review of it. Nothing compared to your beautiful work though.
Even if you dont care for my video definitely check out the WildSpark platform.
Just launched today so im not certain how well it will do.

This is fantastic! Very well done and so beautiful. Im showing this to me brother in law he has been a long time pilot. I get to fly with him now and again. It is such a treat. We were on a short trip just the other day and amazed at all untouched wilderness out there, even fairly close to me.
I have a question for you if you don't mind for my next trip with him. I wanted to mount my Gopro on the outside of his plane. Just the little mount would be permanent. It has a metal leash too. Im sure your familiar. He got nervous about it and we decided not to do it. How did you mount your external cameras? I assume you used rivets or something permanent for the mounts. I thought about very strong magnets but hell I don't know how to determine what's strong enough. I use magnet mounts at home. The glue pads on the standard go-pro mounts are very strong , and the mount is slightly curved which is perfect, but i'm not sure they are 150 mile an hour wind strong. It's not the camera I am so worried about but it getting sucked into something it shouldn't. I would love to see how you did it. Sorry for all the amature questions. Shared on FB this is very cool!
