Picture Connecticut: Hangin' In The Hangar

WINDSOR LOCKS, CT — The latest in the Picture Connecticut comes from the lends of noted photographer Timothy Becker and Creative Images Photography.

In 2021, Becker was contacted by a national commercial real estate company and asked if I would be interested in photographing a large aircraft hangar that previously was a service center for corporate jet aircraft, next to Bradley International Airport.

Becker took a 360-degree image of the interior of the hanger by setting up two video cameras — one outside and one inside the hanger — to capture live action of the giant doors opening and closing.

The video is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lppl1ncrxo683gn/Hanger_Doors_Opening.mp4?dl=0.

A new company has since moved in.
