Aerial photography can be very inspirational since it provides a view of our environment and surroundings from a perspective we are not used to. It was first practiced in the 1800’s by photographers in balloons. Today, with the advancement in equipment and technology, aerial photographers are able to get a wider variety of photos from above. Here are 40 breathtaking aerial photos for your inspiration.

Great collection, photography is all about getting a new visual perspective and these aerial shots certainly provide that!
Great photo collection! I like the vine photo best!
Fabulous collection. The pictures are breathtaking.
Nice aerials. I don’t see any of Adriel Heisey, Yves-Bertrand, Cameron Davidson or William Garnett’s work. They are the true masters of aerial imagery. Mr. Garnett (R.I.P) was an incredible photographer. Also, look at Marilyn Bridges work.
Now there’s something you don’t see in Google Maps…

Stunning! great collection
Why isn’t credit given under each photo to the photographer? I know each photo is linked, but that isn’t good enough. They deserve to have their work recognized as their work.
It’s only fair, you would want the same.
Thanks for featuring two of our images! You can see more aerial photography (mainly taken by a helium balloon) from Bulgaria here:
