Jason Hawkes is a photographer with an exceptional talent for the difficult art of aerial photography. Here he captures the essence of London's ever-changing skyline in over 150 stunning colour pictures taken from heights of between 500 and 1,500 feet. All the classic London sights - Buckingham Palace, the Tower, Westminster Abbey, Parliament, the Thames in all its moods - are revealed in new light, often from striking angles; and the new London - Docklands, the glamorous City towers, the Thames barrier, the Millennium Dome - are also included. A highly informative commentary on the pictures is provided by Felix Barker, whose knowledge of London and its history is unrivalled.

Allowing us to travel mid-air through London, "High Above London" leads us to a thoroughly new appreciation of a city that has always been foremost in people's imagination. These splendid aerial photographs reveal a complex city of contrasts. An urban cluster without regular order, the city is actually a collection of villages that grew up around Roman Londinium, and today each has its own history, character, architecture, and even rhythm - and all are illustrated in the beautiful photographs. The sky offers a perfect vantage point to view and understand this city of contrasts with its cultural diversity and multi cultural nature.
