Jason Hawkes Photography

I must recommend the above link for the fantastic photography of London. It is my home city but it is easy to forget what it truly looks like when you are so determinedly hunched into your daily routine.

Jason Hawkes took these photos from a helicopter (which cost a vast amount of money to rent) and flew over the Capital snapping these shots of iconic landmarks. In order to achieve the clarity in such a turbulent machine, he used very slow shutter speeds and has the camera fixed on a specially constructed mount with gyro stabilizers.

Good work Jason!
