A photographer has captured a stark view of the urban economic segregation in South Africa.
Johnny Miller has used drone technology to take an aerial view of the divide in standards of living between the poor and the wealthy.
His work highlights how the manicured suburbs of the middle classes sit only several hundred metres away from the ramshackle shanty towns of the poorest members of society.
An example include a God's-eye view of the picturesque suburbs looking out onto the glistening waters of Lake Michelle, 20km from Cape Town?s city centre. Separated by wetlands, a guard house and an electrified fence, the 38,000 inhabitants of the neighbouring tin shacks of Masiphumelele are a world away.

A photographer has captured a series of charming photos of Berlin's post-war housing apartment blocks.
The pictures show perfectly symmetrical concrete apartment blocks, pictured against blue skies.
Copenhagen-based photographer Malte Brandenburg, 37, travelled back to his birth place (Berlin) to capture the photo series 'Stacked'.
Malte said: "I wanted to highlight the architectural structure of these buildings rather than their social context. I think by making them comparable you notice that they all have something in common, but that the architects still maintained their individual small little features.
"For me they are not ugly leftovers from past decades in a city?s skyline. I find they tell a story, which is still relevant today, namely the tension between engineering and the human element.

Oct. 19, 2015 - Jerusalem, Israel - The Israel Police closes off exits and entrances to the Arab neighborhood of Issawiyah in East Jerusalem in order to control and monitor traffic and movement of residents, following multiple Palestinian terror attacks in recent weeks, most of which were perpetrated by East Jerusalem residents. The move is highly controversial publicly and in government as it de facto divides what Netanyahu's government calls 'the eternal undivided capital of Israel (FOTO: DUKAS/ZUMA)

Eric Lusito - Traces of the Soviet Empire
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/p8ug
These haunting photographs show the remnants of the once all-powerful Soviet empire.
They are the work of Eric Lusito, who spent six years travelling throughout the former Soviet world from East Germany to Mongolia, from Poland to Kazakhstan to seek out remains of the military installations that embodied the ambition and the might of the USSR.
Describing himself as working like an archaeologist, the French photographer says his project "Traces of the Soviet Empire" is a photographic record of the land and architecture - haunted by the symbols and history of a once powerful Empire.
The on-going project takes the form of three series: exteriors, interiors, and found photographs "images from another time, another space and another world".
What he found was colourful propaganda wall art, faded frescos of Lenin, discarded gas masks, and huge monuments, including those in the shapes of a soldier and a sword.

Captivating photos show trees growing in the middle of busy Hong Kong, Hong Kong, June 2014

Captivating Photos Show Trees Growing In The Middle Of Busy Hong Kong
These amazing pictures show trees growing in the middle of Hong Kong's busiest district.
French photographer Romain Jacquet-Lagreze shot the eye-catching photo series, entitled Wild Concrete, in the Mong Kok area of the city.
The images from Wild Concrete were published in a book released last month. (May 17, 2014)
Romain says the series is about the resilience of nature in an urban environment.
Focusing solely on the phenomena of trees sprouting from residential buildings, Wild Concrete compares the living conditions between plants and humans both growing in harsh surroundings.
Romain explains: "In this series the trees share the same exceptional qualities as their human counterparts: perseverance, diligence, and independence."
The photographer came across the wild trees by chance while he was shooting in the area.
He says: "Mong Kok, the most busy and crowded district of Hong Kong, and probably in the world. I was so amazed that such a tree could manage to grow and thrive on such an unlikely location. I found it very symbolic to see how it created its own home among the residential buildings where people are living.
"This place is so dense that there is not much space for greenery. This tree invited itself in here, a bit like if it was challenging the whole city."
The tree's existence made him curious if there might be any other trees growing in the middle of the busy city.
"So I began to look for them and that is how the series started," he says.
Romain believes Hong Kong is the perfect combination of a dense city with easy-access to relaxing getaways such as beaches and small islands.
"From a more personal point of view, what I love most is the visual identity of the city, it's very graphic and it gives me ...

Romain says the series is about the resilience of nature in an urban environment.
Focusing solely on the phenomena of trees sprouting from residential buildings, Wild Concrete compares the living conditions between plants and humans both growing in harsh surroundings.
Romain explains: "In this series the trees share the same exceptional qualities as their human counterparts: perseverance, diligence, and independence."
The photographer came across the wild trees by chance while he was shooting in the area.
He says: "Mong Kok, the most busy and crowded district of Hong Kong, and probably in the world. I was so amazed that such a tree could manage to grow and thrive on such an unlikely location. I found it very symbolic to see how it created its own home among the residential buildings where people are living.
"This place is so dense that there is not much space for greenery. This tree invited itself in here, a bit like if it was challenging the whole city."
The tree's existence made him curious if there might be any other trees growing in the middle of the busy city.
"So I began to look for them and that is how the series started," he says.
Romain believes Hong Kong is the perfect combination of a dense city with easy-access to relaxing getaways such as beaches and small islands.
"From a more personal point of view, what I love most is the visual identity of the city, it's very graphic and it gives me ...

Amy Beth Cavaretta and husband Joe Cavaretta with midwife Laurie Ross-Berke
Photographer Captures Hospital Parking Lot Birth
A photographer has captured the remarkable moment an expectant mother gave birth - in the parking lot of a hospital.
The stunning - and tear-jerking - images taken by professional photographer Emily Robinson document the moment Amy Beth Cavaretta gives birth in the entrance to Florida's Boca Raton hospital.
And one especially heartwarming picture captures the jubilant expression on husband Joe Cavaretta's face after baby Sienna arrived.

"I've been a portrait and birth photographer for about 2 years. When Amy Beth became pregnant, she contacted me to be her photographer.
"The evening she was in labour, we talked via text and I made the decision to go over and hang out with her until they felt it was time to head to the hospital.
