In Joseph Ford's new series of aerial shots, he painstakingly matches up features from the natural world to those in fashion. Here a road at the Riserva Naturale dello Zingaro in Sicily, Italy flows perfectly into a zipper on a jacket by K-Way. *Image: © Joseph Ford 2011-13. All rights reserved*
Joseph Ford02Aerial: Morocco, MerzougaJumper: KenzoBackground shirt: APC
This was one of the more difficult shots to get. Ford says it took him 12 hours to perfectly winkle the Kenzo sweater so it reflected the sand dunes in Merzouga, Morocco. *Image: © Joseph Ford 2011-13. All rights reserved*

For every shot, Ford places the piece of clothing on the floor and positions the camera at the same angle as it would have been for the aerial shots. Here, a Swatch mimics a road in Sicily. *Image: © Joseph Ford 2011-13. All rights reserved*

Railroads are one of the easier combinations to envision, though it does take time to match the teeth of the zipper to the sleepers on the railroad. *Image: © Joseph Ford 2011-13. All rights reserved*

Ford shoots the images tethered, which means he has a cable running directly to the laptop that allows him to see instantly how the images match up. *Image: © Joseph Ford 2011-13. All rights reserved*

“When you’re in helicopter you often see something with a change in perspective or view you see stuff that reminds of you of other things you’re used to in a different context,” he says. *Image: © Joseph Ford 2011-13. All rights reserved*
