    Why aerial photography?I’ve been involved in aviation for more than 40 years, from flight instruction to charter to corporate flying. I always carried a camera, mostly a point- and-shoot, and took pictures from the air. When I was 60, I decided to get quality equipment and start working on it more seriously to make it into a paying hobby, and now it’s turned into a business.How did you build your business?

    Straight-lined subjects add structure, solidity and form to a composition, but they can also be staid and boring. Luckily, it’s extremely easy to jazz them up. When lines travel perfectly parallel to frame edges, they can lend a static quality, robbing a photo of energy or dynamism. Photographer Jeff Amadon noticed this when shooting vertical shafts of lavender at the University of Kentucky’s Arboretum in his hometown, Lexington.

That’s one of the reasons for instant film’s continued appeal for artminded photographers, despite its growing scarcity.
