View
from the top of the world: Passenger jet pilot's jaw-dropping photographs
stunning vistas... taken from his cockpit at 35,000 ft
- They were taken by
Karim Nafani, a commercial airline pilot and photographer based in Dubai
- He began the
project to document his daily routine through a series of stunning
photographs from 35,000 feet
- He says, 'I take
you far away from skyscrapers this time to somewhere much higher: welcome
to my daily office!'
- Gives pictures ethereal glow by setting
camera to take three images at different exposures which he then combines

Stunning view: Dubai-based Karim Nafani sees more than just a few
trees and an open space from his desk at work... he gets to see the whole world
in shimmering panorama
Panorama: This photograph is of a 1st officer enjoying the sunrise
at 37,000 feet above sea level en route to Chittagong Bangladesh
Into the light: He says he began the project in a bid to document
his daily routine through a series of stunning photographs that reveal exactly
what it is like for pilots at 35,000 feet
The only trouble is, when it gets a bit stuffy, he can't open the
window as any normal office worker would.
He said: 'I take you far away from skyscrapers and high rise
building roof tops this time to somewhere much higher: welcome to my daily
office!'
He gives the images their ethereal look through a technique called
'exposure bracketing' which involves setting up a DSLR camera to take at least
three shots, each at a different exposure, before combining them to create the
final print.
Great view: Karim usually has to be behind the camera to take
pictures of the cockpit but here he turned the camera on himself
Motherboard: Apart from the beautiful views that confront Karim
each day he takes to the skies, his pictures also remind viewers of the
incredible array of levers, panels and buttons that cover almost every inch of
an aircraft's cockpit
Hometown: Karim took this picture as he flew over his hometown
Dubai
The result looks more like an oil painting on canvas than a
real-time digital photograph.
Apart from the beautiful views that confront Karim each day he
takes to the skies, his pictures also remind viewers of the incredible array of
levers, panels and buttons that cover almost every inch of an aircraft's
cockpit.
And, of course, he knows his way around them just as well as he
does around those on his digital SLR camera.
But Karim's portfolio doesn't end inside his cockpit.
As a pilot he says he developed a keen interest in how the world
looks from above.
So he went about climbing to the top of buildings and skyscrapers
to picture cities from above.
Branching out: But Karim's portfolio doesn't end inside his cockpit
'Close up': This is an aerial view of the artificial Palm Islands
in Dubai
On top of the world: Karim often uses a fish eye lens to bend the
horizon beyond its natural curve
A view from a bridge: But very rarely, Karim likes to take pictures
from underthings rather than over them
Moody: Karim's braketted exposure technique gives many of his
cityscapes a dark edge, almost as if taken from a post-apocalyptic comic book
Rings and roundabouts: One of Karim's favourite times to photograph
Dubai is at night when the city lights up in a kaleidoscope of colour
Marina-nother world: As a pilot he says he developed a keen
interest in how the world looks from above.
Dusk or dawn? So he went about climbing to the top of buildings and
skyscrapers to picture cities from above
Menacing: Karim paints a picture of a world without limits
Tallest in the world: Dubai has a skyline that is not only one of
the world's most iconic but also the tallest
