This series of images presents New York City from the air, as photographed from a helicopter. It was an exceptional experience itself to fly above the greatest city in the world, approaching its landmarks at a high altitude while sitting in the aircraft with the door open. As a photographer, however, I had a very concrete task to accomplish and there was no time for enjoying the views. Photographing from a helicopter is spontaneous. I took a few flights and probably never shot anything I had actually planned before. Up in the air everything happens incredibly quickly. This requires focus, making instant decisions and controlling camera parameters, as the light changes along with perspective and the sun setting.
You may encounter some of my aerial photographs amongst Microsoft Windows wallpapers, in Forbes Magazine and in commercial campaigns all over the world. Printed artworks are in possession of private collectors in the United States, the United Kingdom and Poland.
This particular capture presents an excerpt of Midtown Manhattan and its several landmarks in the middle. I only had one chance to photograph Chrysler Building from this perspective, as we weren't about to come back via the same route. For a short while which last no more than 20 seconds, first I started shooting vertically, capturing Chrysler and a great piece of Lexington Avenue, and then I took a series of horizontal shots of Chrysler and its surroundings.
