Some of the most spectacular aerial photography

There is something beautiful and special about aerial photography. The way a photographer captures a scene, moment, or spectacular view from an elevated angle. You see details you normally wouldn't notice, and perhaps, even discover something new. Whether it's an overview of people laying on the beach or a stunning view of New York City's concrete jungle, aerial photography gives you a unique perspective to how large (or small) the world may seem through a lens -- and even make you appreciate the world a little bit more.
