Capturing trains is often a spontaneous ordeal. A distant rumble on this crisp autumn day proved the right time and place.

Artist's Statement:

Tommy Nikitiuk is the artist behind Take One Aerial, a passion project that explores Richmond’s cityscape and surrounding landscapes through the unique perspective of drone photography. With endless vantage points available from above, his work seeks to reveal familiar places in unfamiliar ways—capturing details, rhythms, and geometries that often go unnoticed at ground level.

His inspiration draws from a mix of early influences: the skating (rollerblading) scene, the visual energy of music videos, and the natural beauty of everyday environments. These influences, combined with a lifelong pull toward creative expression, shape a practice that balances raw curiosity with a desire to reframe the ordinary.
