I've shot Manhattan on quite a few different occasions, mainly for advertising briefs, and it has always been fantastic fun. The heliports are dotted around the island on the Hudson River, although there is always talk of them closing down because of noise pollution to their neighbours. It only takes about a minute or two from take off to be flying around the spires of incredible skyscrapers. This image was commissioned for a press ad for Mitsubishi cars, and we spent about four days flying, searching to find the exact image the art director was after.
