Welcome to one of the worlds largest on-line collections of oblique aerial photographs of the UK.New Gallery from 2018 : After more than a decade of service my old gallery has become somewhat wobbly and so all the images have been uploaded to a new gallery. It will take some time to update all the image descriptions. I am also upgrading the images to larger sizes suitable for modern screens. My aerial photographs of Wales and Scotland are now finally ordered by county. As of the beginning of 2020, most of the old gallery has been deleted and new upgraded versions of the images uploaded to the new gallery, but there are still quite a few to do. The image library contains tens of thousands of aerial photographs of England Scotland and Wales , UK . Webb Aviation is run by Jonathan C.K.Webb BA(Hons)DipM ARPS Click here to visit the new gallery. I take aerial photos in
both the UK and Germany with the German image being on
a seperate website, www.webbaviation.de
. All the aerial photographs in the picture library
are free to view as full page images and available to licence
as high resolution digital files with usage rights. I
am currently shooting a huge number of
aerial photographs every year so there are many more
photographs in stock than on-line so it is always
worth emailing a special request. With 2 million
visitors per year my gallery is
one of the biggest and most popular
galleries in the world for free to view on-line
oblique aerial photographs of the UK. |

An Englishman abroad My German night aerial photographs have been in a recent series of articles in the Bild newspaper entitled is " Nachtflug über Leipzig / Köln / Halle " - Night flight over Leipzig / Cologne / Halle. The articles include a short resume under the title " Dieser Engländer machte die Fotos"! I have now published many of the images in 3 new German books: Cologne, Leipzig and Düsseldorf from above. |

May 2008, The Royal Photographic Society have awarded me the distinction of Associate of the Royal Photographic Society. This is a great honor and is a little unusual in that it is based purely on my aerial photographic work and also unusual that I have gained the distinction of Associate without first having gained the distinction of Licentiate. Technological revolution: I always use the latest and
best cameras In 2008 I bought
the Canon 1DS Mk III, Kenlabs KS-8 Gyro stabilizer
coupled with some pretty special lenses. With them I
can easily read many car numbers from 1500 feet
with the long lens photographs and can photograph in
complete darkness with my ultra fast lenses. From 2013 I
made further improvements with the new Canon 5dIII with
even more detail and from Summer 2015 I have been
using the amazing 50MP Canon 5DS .
Night aerial photographs of Germany including Cologne Cathedral.

Webb Aviation aerial photographers
is run by Jonathan CK Webb, who has been in
the UK aerial photography business since 1991.
While much of our work is commissioned oblique and
near vertical aerial photography surveys for
a wide range of blue chip U.K. commercial and
public sector clients we also run the gallery where
members of the public can browse for an aerial
photo of their house or street. I hope you will
enjoy looking through our image library as much as
I have enjoyed taking the photographs. I have been
pleasantly surprised at just how popular this has
been and we have a huge number of visitors ( up to
5 million a year! ) from throughout the world,
especially ex pats looking up their old home towns
and students looking to see what real life is like
in the UK . My aerial gallery is a real picture of
British life, not just the chocolate box tourist
scenes. I show life as it really is from beautiful
York to the industrial North West of England with
its factories and terraced streets. I take our
aerial photographs flying at altitudes of 800 to
3000 feet ( in the United Kingdom it is not
allowed to fly below 500 feet) Our aerial views
are used for publishing, industrial site
management, property sales, construction progress
recording, boundary disputes, schematic maps* and
planning applications as well as just a
fascinating aerial picture to hang on the wall. As
well as the UK I also take aerial photographs in
Germany and have recently added a comprehensive
selection new aerial photos of German cities. I am
often flying over London and am currently adding a
lot of images to my London
aerial
photography
gallery.
