Paragliding in pictures
Stolen moments 2 is a 144-page collection of over 200 photos by Jérôme Maupoint. After 15 years of intense involvement in paragliding, Jérôme offers you his view of different facets of the sport. Stolen Moments #2 is the fruit of long journeys, encounters and contemplations, rare moments lived intensely.
"This is my second book of paragliding images. In-flight photography totally guides my life. It's a never-ending quest, because every day, in every place, the light, the atmosphere and the elements are different. This book isn't about wings, performance or technique; it's about evocation and emotion. What's important in this life of aerial adventures are the places and their perspectives, the situations and their contrasts, the people with whom I've shared the privilege of these rare moments."
Each image in this book is just a click of a 500th of a second, but it took him years to capture just the right moment.
In addition, this book is self-published. This freedom has resulted in a polished book, printed on high-quality satin-finish paper.

"This is my second paragliding photo book. Flying photography really drives my life, which is a never-ending search as every day, in every place, the light, atmosphere and elements are different.
This book is not about paragliders, their performance or technology; it's clearly about evocations and emotions. To me, the most important aspects of my life of flying adventures are the places and their perspectives, the situations and their contrasts, and the special people I shared special moments with."
