Takeoff ─ The Alpha to Zulu of Aviation Photography

Photographers are passionate about their subjects -- and none more than aviation photographers. Moose Peterson’s Take-Off: The Alpha to Zulu of Aviation Photography takes you into that world, inspiring you as he teaches the basics of shooting planes, and illuminates the key differences between “shooting static” and in-the-air photography. Peterson’s breathtaking full-color guide shares all the practical knowledge you’ll need to capture the romance and thrill of flight: challenges, techniques, equipment, settings, output, and more. You’ll learn how to photograph any aircraft from the ground, from ground to air, and from plane to plane; how to powerfully communicate movement in still images; and how to capture the pilots as well as you capture the machines they’re flying.

Moose Peterson became hooked on aviation photography within the first minute of his first air-to-air and hasn’t stopped since, with more than 100 photo missions in the logbook since.
