Josef Hoflehner

Josef Hoflehner (born 1955) is an Austrian photographer known for his dramatic black-and-white landscape and subtle color images.[1] He is also known for his "Jet Airliner" series—mostly high-key photographs of people on Maho Beach on the Caribbean island of St. Maarten, overshadowed by low-flying passenger planes taking off and landing at Princess Juliana International Airport.[2][3][4] He was voted Nature Photographer of the Year 2007,[5] and named as one of "Austria's 10 Best Contemporary Artists" in 2014.[6]
