The graphic markings on a helipad are composed by the photographer, Zoe Wetherall, to give a sense of pattern and rhythm. The circular and striped lines activate the central panel of grey, centered along an atmospheric plane of teal blue water in this abstract waterscape photograph.

Zoe Wetherall is a Brooklyn-based photographer from Australia, who travels the world to photograph abstract aerial landscapes from the point of view of a hot air balloon. Zoe Wetherall photographs at a pace and elevation that gives a truly unique perspective. Hovering about the landscape in a hot air balloon these photographs have abstract the landscape by removing the line of the horizon.

Zoe Wetherall’s photos are taken just above us, a bird’s eye view. From a few hundred feet Wetherall photographs straight downward, excluding the horizon, sky, or any visual reference point.
