Reflective Fighter Jet Helmets


Many young lads have dreamed of soaring through the skies in a fighter jet as if they were Tom Cruise in Top Gun. Using charcoal on mounted paper, Robert Longo gives us a unique perspective, allowing us to see the fighter jet's crosshair in the sky through the reflection of the pilot's helmet. Longo titled the series Yingxiong (Heroes).
