In synch with Imogen Cunningham statement “Which of my photographs is my favorite? The one I’m going to take tomorrow”, with my photographs I am always in pursuit of capturing something unique and distinct. This is reflected in the subject of this seminar. I felt like I needed a new challenge since I had been shooting at eye-level for years. Always in search of a different point of view, three years ago I started using a drone for aerial photography. Now, as FAA certified pilot, I can really try to scout new locations, dare to test new unusual outlooks and perspectives.
