Aerial Photos Of Newcastle

Two sets of aerial photos to share with you both sent in by readers of this site.

First up, ex-Byker lad Brian Clark sent these great aerial photos. Brian's son, Philip, has a company based in Phuket, Thailand called Helicam, taking photographs from the air and ground with remote controlled equipment, you can see the website here... Helicam.
Thanks Brian.

The next set were taken in 2004 by reader Steve Robinson on a helicopter ride around Tyneside. Steve explained that the photos were taken from inside the helicopter which explains the lack of detail in parts but they are still great views.
