Kite Aerial Photography
 
This may be old hat to many or most of you viewpoint explorers, but this fellow has posted an incredible gallery of kite aerial images. And he gives away all his secrets - rather amazing. I've no social or financial attachment to him - but his work is remarkable:

right, Bob, Scott's been around awhile but his work never ceases to amaze me!
Flying a kite is one thing, something I have never achieved with home-made models, but putting a camera aloft with all the risks of aerial idiosynchrasies defies my courage and pocket!!

Thanks for the nice link.
I was good with home made kits as a kid, may be this is a nice experiment as well. I am sure my wife is gonna love it if I loose a few camera and tools as she desperately needs more room at home.:)
I am looking at commercial potential here for example those several million dollar houses that are going to be put listed for sale and need aerial picture at a rather high cost. Only if you get the right wind every time:D

Good idea there i would think. I would imagine its cheaper to hire a guy with a kite than a liight aeroplane and pilot.

Just thought I'd pass it along - really fascinating stuff. - Bob
