A Flight Around Vermont

Aerial photography is tricky business, and in this case the photographer is also the pilot! Gallery at the VAULT will host a visual presentation Tuesday, March 16 from 6 - 7:30 p.m.

Photographer Len Emery will present 60 photographs taken during his flights over Vermont’s lower and middle counties. Aerials of Springfield, Morrisville, Middlebury, Rutland and many others are included. • Emery says, “All photos were taken while I piloted any one of several Cessna aircraft. There are views of many landmarks that most ground based observers don’t see from a pilot’s perspective-among them, the Moore Reservoir Dam, the State’s capital building in Montpelier and the Shelburne Museum.”

From a desire to get his commercial pilot’s license Emery began to also use his flight time to photograph all Vermont’s counties. After a friend suggested he put his photographs into book form, Vermont From One Thousand Feet was born. The first of a series of six planned volumes is now in print and available at the VAULT. Emery is a freelance photographer living in Springfield. You can see his work at the VAULT or visit his website at www.lenemeryphotography. com.

Gallery at the VAULT, 68 Main St. in Springfield, Vermont. Hours are Tues. – Sat. 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. or call 802-885- 7111 or visit the website at www.galleryvault
