The Uçak Park airplane restaurant
At Uçak Park, a parked airliner forms the centerpiece of the area. When viewed vertically, the fuselage and wings lie on the property almost like a drawing. From the side, the height of the aircraft and the neighboring buildings are added as a scale.
An airplane as a building
At Uçak Park, the outline of the wings reveals the motif at first glance. In the further picture, the outdoor facilities show how the aircraft is tied to the ground today.
For a recognizable object portrait, the main subject needs enough space to show its shape. The surroundings also explain where it is located. A good comparison therefore begins with a broader view and then looks for a narrower section that reveals a characteristic feature. In the caption, the location can precede the description of the detail. This means that it remains clear what the recording refers to even if it is later taken over individually from a series.
The almost vertical view
When taken almost vertically, the side surfaces of the objects recede. What remains is the contour, color and the distance to neighboring shapes. This is helpful when explaining a floor plan or arrangement in a small space. An oblique view then complements what the steep view foreshortened, namely height, differences in level and the relationship to the horizon. For joint publication, at least one clearly recognizable detail in both images should serve as a reference point.
Gardens, paths and open spaces
In gardens, humanly placed forms meet freely growing vegetation. From above, a line of trees can mark a path, even if it is mostly in the shade. When selecting images, the transitions between paved ground, lawn and dense vegetation are interesting. They explain the division of the area. This is particularly helpful when publishing a view of buildings, because the connection between the house, entrance and garden can be seen from the course of the paths.
The distribution of blue tones
To switch between two of the 8 aerial photos, shot 3 and shot 5 can be called up directly in the gallery. In the first excerpt, shades of blue play a smaller role. In the second shot, blue areas take up more space. Blue can extend over a large contiguous area or only appear in individual parts. What also counts for the effect is whether these areas extend to the edge of the picture or surround the main subject.
Shot 1 and Shot 8 are among the views from March 3, 2021. According to the camera's time information, there are approximately 4 minutes between the two images. ISO 100 and an exposure time of 1/800 second are recorded for both files.
An image for spatial documentation
For documentation over several years, the exact excerpt is just as important as the date it was taken. It makes sense to have a fixed reference point that should also exist at the next appointment. Temporarily parked vehicles are of little help. A street intersection or the corner of a building is usually easier to find again. An aerial photographer can record the direction of view along with the image number. If you later put two prints next to each other, you can more easily see the difference between a structural change and a simply different perspective.
Related motifs in the aerial photo archive
Two additional views can be used in the archive for comparison. The first can be found at Adaland Kusadasi. In the Adaland facility near Kuşadası, the colored slides can be followed from above through several curves. The second belongs to the article Davraz Dağı. On the Davraz Dağı in Turkey, snow-covered slopes fill the picture.
