From the Air – Abbot Hall

Back to the air for this Thurday 'From the Rooftops' image. A few weeks ago, I took to the air in a Cessna piloted by Aviv Hod and we flew over town. You can read the full account here but, suffice it to say, it was a fairly quick trip. I did manage to get it together for a few shots and, when we made our way over this iconic building, all fear was put aside and I tried for the best composition possible. Enjoy this aerial view of Abbot hall and, if you live nearby, see if you can [...]

From the Rooftops – Flying over the Neck

I thought I had reached the conclusion of my Rooftop series this week. I had scoured old images but did not see any I liked and did not have any shoots lined up. I was pretty upset about having to put an end to this unique view of our town when Aviv Hod called me. For those who may not know him, Aviv is a financial advisor. We met at Shirat Hayam and I came to find out that he was an avid pilot. As it was Wednesday and my only duties were to stain a desk for my son, [...]
