In this section you can find aerial photography taken during some local flights around the Maltese islands.

Over the years, often through trial and error, I have learned a lot of techniques, tricks and tips when taking air-to-air and aerial photos. A photo camera, especially being in an aircraft, is subject to movements and vibrations which can make photos blurry. While one might believe that photography is seasonal, it is not. It is just that each season introduces different variables into the mix. The higher, brighter sun in Summer allows the use of finer grain film. This, in turn, allows you to shoot at faster speeds. Wintertime, for example, when the sun is lower, a faster film with a coarser grain film needs to be used.

I patiently wait for perfect conditions: unrestricted visibility, no clouds, and the right lighting. Aerials will show you facets of your environment that you never realized no matter how long you lived there. There are numerous points of interest in our beautiful island.
