Appreciation towards Bernhard Lang for providing the following description:

It is really amazing what any appropriate distance, be it emotional and physical, can do. Aren’t there times you wished that you had protected yourself from a troubled relationship? Or you perhaps you just wished you had not been so scared and took a certain risk? It would be so helpful sometimes if in our everyday life, we had the chance to see our microcosm and our relationships from a more adequate perspective, not too close up not too far either, and interact with others whilst being neither too involved nor too distant. It would certainly solve a lot of our problems, from a tiny heartbreak to great frustration. Bernhard Lang, a talented German photographer with a versatile career to his name, is obsessed with finding this ideal distance, the perfect point where nature and humans could seem to be living together in a perfect match. His aerial views, almost unreal in their calculated formalism, amaze with the new perspective they cast on this eternal battle, both aesthetic and existential, between the natural environment and the human presence.

Bernhard Lang’s photos are proof that, when viewed from above, we are the weirdest intruders on planet earth! The human figures in his photos seem almost unreal, like colorful playmobils with no sense of their own existence. It is almost funny to see them spend their spare time under the sun or swimming carefree in a river or swimming pool. Under this perspective or indeed microscope, Lang’s work is a reminder that whatever our life and our problems may be, a zoom out picture will always reveal that we are just small creatures, nothing more than a tiny reflection of the universe.  Lang’s stills look like paintings. This is due to the amazing color pallet of his work that intensifies the impression that nature, rather than the photographed, is painted on canvas.

The green of the trees and the blue of the deep sea in his photos remind us that the universe we are part of is definitely worth living. Moreover, one cannot but admire Lang’s talent to turn a simple view into a deep sensorial experience. His aerial views are the triumph of mankind in a natural environment that both scares and amazes. Standing somewhere between the earth and the sky, his work is an act of liberation; a colorful celebration of life in its most.

“Now that there’s consistently an autumn chill in the air, summer feels like a distant memory. With its zoomed out images of people lazily sprawling on rafts, pleasure boating, hanging out under colorful umbrellas, and spending time poolside, Aerial Views, a multi-part series by Munich-based photographer Bernhard Lang, is the perfect visualization of how we feel; his subjects are removed, but still within sight. Click through for a slide show of Lang’s shots over water, and if you’d prefer something more wintery, head over to his website for some equally stunning aerial views featuring snow and ice.”

“His aerial photographs (among others) are of remarkable quality. The colors are gorgeous and very neat details. It gives us a new vision of activities that we practice more often on holidays such as skiing, napping, windsurfing or even the boat.”

“The German photographer Bernhard Lang comes with a series of aerial photographs to illustrate his talent. With this high regard, his work can provide a different view of human activities and landscapes.”

Snowscapes
After all that snow across Europe and the east coast of the US we thought it was only appropriate to share these stunning and ethereal snow covered landscapes shot over Bavaria.”

这是来自超有才华的德国摄影师Bernhard Lang的作品，这些鸟瞰图让人惊讶，拿捏了恰到好处的距离。不遥远却又互动，自然与人类是天造地设的搭配。也许从这个角度看，人们仿佛有些不真实，但是这也像是一个提醒：宇宙无穷大，人类终渺小。照片就像画布一样色彩绚丽，那些树木与海洋的深蓝，让人不由感叹地球真的是太伟大了。介于地面与天空之间，是一个Bernhard Lang为我们提供的特别角度。

有评论认为他的照片能够传达出季节的温度，让人感受到秋凉夏燥。那些照片中的场景仿佛来自遥远的记忆般完美的被视觉化：懒洋洋飘荡的筏子，游艇，五颜六色的雨伞……真是越看越惊叹。还有人认为他的作品卓越，色彩华丽，细节考究，并给让人们用全新的视野看待一些日常行为如：滑雪，午睡，船….

也许这是分享欧洲和美国东海岸景观的最有趣的方式。
