There will always be new discoveries when looking at the same thing from a different perspective.
When brothers JP and Mike Andrew first shot with a drone, they were blown away by what they saw from the air.
Andrew Brothers’ First Abstract Aerial Art Photo

Landscapes that seem mundane on the ground become magical and beautiful when seen from the air.
Inspired by this, the brothers began to travel around the world, and decided to use their works to tell the audience “how incredible the world is from the sky”. In this way, this group of abstract aerial photography works of art was born.
The aerial images of the Andrew brothers are characterized by clever composition and do not rely on luck at all.
Before arriving on location to shoot, they often use Google Earth and other mapping software to virtually compose images on a computer.
In the following pictures, the left picture is taken by Google Earth, and the right picture is the actual shot.
In addition to preliminary inspections and compositing pictures on Google Earth, choosing a good timing and light is also very important for the Andrew brothers.
For example, an image titled Skyline captures a cargo ship sailing across a body of water.
The shadow cast by the containers on the cargo ship on the water is like a city skyline, which is eye-catching.

“While some of the aerial images we take look unbelievable and may even be called into question, each of them is a real place on our planet.”
The Andrew brothers say that apart from slight color and contrast enhancements, the photos they took were free of any other artifacts.
They hope to tell the audience through these photos that there is a whole new world waiting to be discovered on this planet.
Whether it is a symmetrically parked vehicle or a flower umbrella that shades the sea, the interesting arrangement and combination they found is a kind of enjoyment for the viewers.
“The more beauty we discover, the more we feel like we’ve only scratched the surface!”
