If you're searching for some inspiring photography then take a look at this selection of photos from photographer, Jason Hawkes.

 

His aerial shots really show the impact that light can have and how it can define a city or piece of architecture. It's a view that we don't often see and I think that's what makes it even more inspirational. So, enjoy these images of London!

 

What do you think of the images? Do you have any suggestions of cities or urban areas that would be ideal for this type of photography?
