Winthrop Aerial Photography by John Munson 07-10-2009

August 20th, 2009 5 comments

Below is a slide show of some of my best aerial photographs of Winthrop. What an experience! It was definitely the most exhilarating photography assignment I’ve ever had. I was lucky enough to connect with Al Coombs, an experienced pilot and photographer. We went on a 4.5 hour flying adventure from the North Shore to the South Shore of Boston, and back. I shot a Canon 1DS Mach II with a 70-200 USM IS 2.8 lens. We shot at 200 ISO and at least 1/1000 shutter speed all day in order to make sure there the photos were superb in quality and sharpness. And they were. By looking at the photos, you’d never know we were zooming along anywhere between 40 to 110 mph high above the land. We ended up taking approximately over 2000 photos, using up more than 45 gigs of memory. And all the while, neither of us got sick. Not bad!

P.S. There are more aerial photos to follow, including some of the best lighthouse photos of Boston Light and Graves Light I’ve ever seen. Ok, I’m a little bias, but they are damn good. I promise.

Check out the slide show below or visit the online gallery at http://beacon.zenfolio.com/winthrop-aerials.
