Synopsis

An unlikely but firm friendship between a professional wildlife photographer and a retired vicar with a passion for aviation has resulted in this extra-ordinary collaboration which celebrates the diversity of Shropshire, as seen from the air.

Over a period of two years, Mark Sisson (below left) and the Reverend Henry Morris (below right) have met up at short notice, weather permitting, to fly over different parts of Shropshire. Angling the small Socata aircraft at 45 degrees, Vicar Henry has put Mark in the right position to photograph the network of canals, waterways, ridges, hills and valleys, patchworks of crops, quarries, monuments, towns and villages. Mark has tried to capture the surprises and the beauty of Shropshire from the air.
