I'm a Canadian/Dutch photographer named Ryan Koopmans. Even though I'm well established and published across the world, I've never made a photography book. Until now, at least. My book "Vantage" explores the earth’s man-made structures, surreal architecture, and megacities, evoking the insight and intrigue experienced from a traveling photographer’s perspective. I took these high-definition photos from cranes, planes, hills, and mountains, yet I preferred not to use a drone. It's because drones don't offer the control and the quality that I like to have for my pictures.
