The Chesapeake: Beauty on the Brink.

My brother-in-law is a helicopter pilot. I hate to fly. I’d rather have my feet on the ground. But, I am in awe of what he does.

Witness, here, a great feature article in this Sunday’s Washington Post Magazine, on the Chesapeake watershed, with incredibly beautiful aerial photos taken by photographer Cameron Davidson.

I find it uncanny that the pilot hovering over the Chesapeake, making it possible for Mr. Davidson to shoot these stunning photos, is my brother-in-law.  It almost makes me want to be air-bound, just to see the view.

Launch the Gallery for more of these gorgeous aerial pictures of the Chesapeake watershed.

  1. Your photos are really beautiful and I loved the thought that Steve was the one keeping the helo in mid-air… Maybe one day I’ll be courageous enough to go.

    Thanks! Steve is the best. A pilots pilot plus BMW rider. Let Steve take you for a flight.

    Thanks for the blog post! Found it via a google alert search for this project.
