# Winged Camera Captures Paul Octavius’s Vintage Camera Photos Depict Soaring Devices By Kyle Towers | Published 2013-04-16 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-camera-photos References: [ufunk.net](http://www.ufunk.net/photos/birds-of-aperture/) & [pauloctavious](http://www.pauloctavious.com/) These vintage camera photos by Paul Octavius are enchanting to look at. They feature an eclectic collection of [antique cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charmera) that possess wings, which allows them to soar across each photo's line of sight. The subject of each photo really pops out from the white background. By taking the photos in such a setting, it creates an angelic and magical feeling that is accentuated by the winged cameras. Each camera is adorned with a different set of wings from [different birds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hum-bloom). The clever title for the vintage camera photos is 'Birds of Aperture,' which is a play on the term 'birds of prey.' The depicted subjects are an intriguing thought. It’s interesting to think whether flying cameras with the ability to snap candid photos would be considered pests like paparazzi, or appreciated for their majestic beauty. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/photography) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Vintage Camera Trends:** The rise of interest in vintage cameras could provide opportunities in refurbishing companies, camera rentals, and photography education focusing on old-school techniques. - **Aerial Photography Trends:** Incorporating aerial photography in various fields, from commercial real estate to artistic expression, can pave the way for drone and aerial photography companies to disrupt the market. - **Unconventional Photography Equipment Trends:** The shift towards unconventional photography equipment can open avenues for companies that manufacture and sell accessories for varied camera models. ### Who This Affects Most - **Photography Industry:** The innovative use of winged vintage cameras in photography can generate interest in new applications and techniques in different photography niches, such as fashion, food, and product photography. - **Education and Training Industry:** Incorporating unconventional techniques and equipment in photography education can provide opportunities for individuals and institutions offering comprehensive photography courses and workshops. - **Arts and Entertainment Industry:** Incorporating aerial photography in different forms of entertainment media, such as movies and music videos, can provide opportunities for production companies that specialize in creating quality aerial footage. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smart Hummingbird Feeders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feathersnap-hummingbird-feeder.md) - [Sleek Analog Film Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lomoapparat.md) - [Multi-Lens Capture Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-walker-multi-cam.md) - [Vintage Imaging Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pgytech-retrova.md) - [Vintage Photo Camera Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moodcamera.md) - [360-Degree Camera Bird Feeders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birdfy-feeder-vista.md) - [Nostalgic Computer Graphic Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrospekt-and-polaroid.md) - [Retro Doll-Themed Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-film-camera.md) - [Imperfect Photography Celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonnas-cam.md)
