Aerial photographs are so different. It used to be quite a challenge in the past to take one. But these days with the advent of drones, it’s become fairly common. And yet we just can’t have enough. Yann Arthus-Bertrand is an outstanding aerial photographer. His volume of work is incomparable, and he has an incredible eye for the interesting and provocative.
