We have had many stills photographers fly with us and received many examples of their work, the pictures below, I thought really stood out as great aerial shots of everyday sights with a certain abstract twist which makes them stand out also as narrative pictures, they invoke images and meanings.

One of the most rewarding parts of running a helicopter tourism company is looking after our passengers special moments in their lives. It’s usually a once in a lifetime experience for them and both this blog writer and our pilots sincerely enjoy these special flights. So this story starts with a young fella called Marcus who rang me to provide a special trip for him and his girlfriend. Below is their story in pics sent to us by them.
Someones feeling a bit nervous! The heli approaches the mystery destination…
Destination is Cape Schanck Lightstation…girlfriend has no idea….after a very exciting coastal landing at the cape, it’s time for action….
After some relaxing in the old Light Keepers cottage, where a wood fire was burning for them on arrival, and then……..
The happy couple below after he finally popped the question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We were sent this kind note with these pics,
Here are a few photos from our day at Cape Schanck.
Thanks again we really had an amazing day, everything was perfect.
Cheers,
Marcus.
A very entertaining diversion from the 30 min city orbit flight by a great family of Americans. They decided to get our pilot to circle their own ship to get photos from the air. Great idea!, afterwards our transfer vehicle dropped them off at the Melbourne Institution “Pelegrinis” for a great home style Italian lunch. Very Happy Campers indeed!
