Sharjah from the Sky: My Aerial Photography Book
I'm honoured to announce the release of Sharjah from the Sky, a photography book produced in collaboration with the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority and published by Sarab Publishing House.
The book at a glance
650 pages
More than 500 aerial photographs
Nearly 7 kg, in a large coffee-table format
Photographed entirely by me, from the air
The book is the result of several years of fieldwork, during which I flew across Sharjah's coastlines, deserts, ports, heritage districts and architectural landmarks. From the patterns of shifting dunes to the geometry of modern infrastructure, every image shows the emirate from a viewpoint that can only be had from the air.
What you'll find inside
Historic districts, including Heart of Sharjah and the traditional souqs
Architectural icons: museums, cultural centres, mosques and modern institutions
Natural landscapes: deserts, mountains and the Gulf coastline
Industrial and maritime zones, from ports and harbours to economic hubs
Urban development, showing Sharjah's expanding skyline and infrastructure
My special thanks to Her Highness Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi for her support.
I'm also grateful to the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority, Sarab Publishing House and Choppershoot Production for making the book possible, and to everyone who supported the project along the way.
