By Pictolic https://mail.pictolic.com/article/the-beauty-of-our-world-from-above.htmlPhotographer Alex McLean has created this stunning series of images from aboard his Cessna 182 plane. Being at an altitude of 1,500 meters, he photographed not only fields and forests, but also residential areas, industrial zones, as well as places of recreation and entertainment. The result is a wonderful series that perfectly conveys the beauty of the lines and shapes of our world from a height.

American photographer Alex McLean has been interested in shooting from an airplane for almost four decades, since he received a pilot's license in 1975 and purchased a Cessna 182 aircraft. The photographer really likes to observe how landscapes change, and photographing agricultural land is one of his favorite activities. In total, Alex McLean has already spent more than 6,000 hours on "photo shoots with farmlands".
