The Desert Recon Series is a flight record of photos real aerial imagery captured from the cockpit over Nevada’s most restricted desert airspace.
Each mission reveals a new sector of the West: the pale outline of Dog Bone Lake, the scarred basins of Yucca Flat, the training corridors of R-4806 and the Nellis Range, and the ghost lines leading toward Mercury, Bald Mountain, and the perimeter of Area 51. Farther north, the horizon breaks over Hawthorne, Nevada — home to the world’s largest weapons depot.
These aren’t satellite composites or stock landscapes. Every image carries verified GPS coordinates and is available in multiple formats:
Museum-grade Canvas Prints: ready to hang, archival, hand-stretched.
Metal Prints: ultra-durable, vivid, and glare-resistant.
Postcards & Collectors Prints: perfect for display or correspondence.
Digital Download Licenses: high-resolution image files for editorial or business use.
Each piece represents authentic reconnaissance — high-altitude, high-resolution views of real places that most people only hear about.
