AEROLITE
GALLERY OF METEORITE PHOTOGRAPHY Original meteorite photographs by Geoffrey Notkin |
My photographs have appeared in national and international publications, including Reader's Digest, Meteorite, Geotimes, Rock and Gem, Lapidary Journal, Alternative Press, American Theater Arts, Trace, Mechanical Engineering, Mushroom (Germany), Przeglad (Poland), Meteoryt (Poland), and on the covers of scores of books and CDs. I am interested in using photographs to highlight the intriguing sculptural aspects of meteorites. The meteorite photographs on this page are a selection of my favorites taken over a period of years. High resolution images are available, for further information please email: The Aerolite Gallery of Meteorite Photography is an ongoing project. New images are added regularly.
