Aerial Photography

In 1858, the first aerial photograph was taken over Paris, France. It was taken by French balloonist and photographer, Gaspar-Felix Tourachon, better known as Nadar.

Aerial photography refers to taking photographs from a relatively high point above the surface of the earth. True aerial photographs are typically taken from something that is not supported by or attached to the ground. These objects are usually floating or flying, and the camera is either attached to them or operated by a photographer who is a passenger.

Here are a few examples of contraptions that can be used to take aerial photographs:

    Fixed-wing airplanes
    Helicopters
    Hang gliders
    Zeppelins and blimps
    Satellites
    Kites
    Parachutes
    Remote control airplanes
    Hot air balloons

Besides being works of art, aerial photographs have many different uses. They can be used for creating maps and surveying the land, for instance. Large real estate companies also use aerial photographs to give potential clients an idea of what a particular area looks like. The military also has uses for aerial photographs, but something tells me that those uses are most likely classified.
