The print newspaper and online site ran a gallery of Jason’s images today.

AERIAL photographer Jason Hawkes has been flying over London in helicopters for over 20 years – and in that time he’s marked the city’s extraordinary evolution in the 21st century.

From City skyscrapers to the green grass of beautiful SW19, home to next month’s Wimbledon Championships, Hawkes flies at heights as low as 450ft all the way up to 2,500ft – hanging out the side of AS355 helicopters shooting images and videos for advertising agencies, design agencies and architects.

In a varied career, he has produced over 50 aerial photographic books for publishers such as the BBC, Random House, Dorling Kindersley and Harper Collins, as well as working with a host of multi-national brands and businesses.
