Aerial photography is almost
as old as photography itself! The first use of a camera to
record the views from above occurred from a hot air balloon in
1858. A photographer named Nader (not Ralph) shot a French
chateau below him and realized the value and uniqueness of this
art. Nadar went on to produce a series of images of Paris
which became a huge commercial success. Braxton
