Have you ever imagined hundreds of planes taking off on the same runway, at the same time? "Airportaits" is such a set, made by photographer Mile Kelley.
The planes are about to land at London's Heathrow Airport.Image.Mike built cameras and tripods at airports, took photos when the plane took off and landed.
Another photo at Hearthrow.
This is a picture Kelly took when the planes took off and crossed the Los Angeles International Airport, USA.Then he edited and created imaginary images when all these planes took off and landed.
The architect and photographer took pictures of the airport in 10 cities, including Amsterdam, Tokyo, Zurich and London.
Mike shared: "At some point, I had to delete thousands of sheets, fix the colors, export the photos and put them together. Some other points like Frankfrurt (Germany), the weather changed constantly. I had to think of how to combine the photos in such changing weather and locations, so that the photos are the most realistic ".
Mike said the project was implemented for nearly two years.Arranging flights to different airports requires a lot of planning, each airport capturing thousands of photos.
Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, Netherlands.After shooting, he spent a lot of time in production, arranging photos, editing to look as real as possible.In the picture is Amsterdam Schiphol airport, Netherlands.
Mike has spent more than 74,000 miles on 25 flights to complete the series.
