A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Why isn't aerial photography as popular? (alien.top)

So I opened a maps website with 360 panoramic images and saw views like this:

Sunrise, shadows and fog. Just some aerostat took a photo and it's beautiful. But I very rarely see aerial photos! There are so many landscape photographers, but they all shoot from their perspective. So why isn't aerial photography as popular?

This is 100 how I feel. I don’t “connect” with aerial photos the way I do ground photos. Aerial can be fascinating but I am not going to hang it in my house.
