\nI recommend you seize every opportunity to photograph a location in the air.
\nWhen you go , take two cameras with different focal lengths. Use high shutter speeds (1000 plus). Ask your pilot to circle the most interesting areas and vary altitude. If possible, go doors off to reduce reflections. If it’s not, wear a black long sleeve shirt. Keep your lens\/shade out of the wind. Shoot fast. As you fly, so will time.
\nPhotographing the Sossusvlei dune fields by helicopter was a highlight for all of us during my recent workshop in Namibia<\/a>. The views were simply divine. These images are all panoramic merges. We did a full 360 degree pano from the helicopter, just for fun.
